This latest recognition adds to recent honors for bGen ZERO following winning Gold earlier this year in the Energy Storage and Management category from the Edison Awards and being named one of TIME magazine's Best Inventions of 2023 in the Green Energy Category
ROSH HA'AYIN, ISRAEL / ACCESS Newswire / November 3, 2025 / Brenmiller Energy Ltd. ("Brenmiller", "Brenmiller Energy", or the "Company") (Nasdaq:BNRG), a leading global provider of Thermal Energy Storage ("TES") solutions for industrial and utility customers, today announced that its bGen ZERO technology - as deployed in the State University of New York (SUNY) Purchase campus project - has won the POWER 2025 Commercial & Industrial Generation Award.
The bGen system installed at SUNY Purchase meets nearly 100% of the campus's Physical Education building's heating needs and about 50% of its electricity, while significantly improving efficiency and reducing operational costs.
"We are honored to receive POWER's 2025 Commercial & Industrial Generation Award," said Avi Brenmiller, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Brenmiller Energy. "This recognition underscores the real-world impact of bGen ZERO at SUNY Purchase - moving beyond concepts to deliver energy and modernize infrastructure while reducing costs. It also validates our belief that thermal storage can be a game-changer for commercial and industrial generation."
The SUNY Purchase project, developed in collaboration with the New York Power Authority (NYPA), replaced an aging district heating loop with Brenmiller's bGen TES system. According to an article published in POWER titled "Energy Storage Project Boosts Efficiency, Provides Savings, Reduces Emissions": the bGen ZERO effectively addresses the building's varied energy demands throughout the day, by capturing exhaust heat from the turbine when operating and storing it in crushed rocks for immediate or later use. The TES also uses internal heaters to convert electricity into heat to meet peak demand, and provides on-demand heat dispatch.
About bGen
bGen ZERO is Brenmiller's TES system, which converts electricity into heat to power sustainable industrial processes at a price that is competitive with natural gas. The bGen ZERO charges by capturing low-cost electricity from renewables or the grid and stores it in crushed rocks. It then discharges steam, hot water, or hot air on demand according to customer requirements. The bGen ZERO also supports the development of utility-scale renewables by providing critical flexibility and grid-balancing capabilities. bGen ZERO was named among TIME's Best Inventions of 2023 in the Green Energy category, won Gold in the Energy Storage and Management category at the 2025 Edison Awards, and won POWER magazine's 2025 Commercial & Industrial Generation Award.
