Technology Description
The Echogen Power Systems team will develop an energy storage system that uses a carbon dioxide (CO2) heat pump cycle to convert electrical energy to thermal energy by heating a “reservoir” of low cost materials such as sand or concrete. The reservoir will retain heat that will be converted back into electricity on demand. To generate power, liquid CO2 will be pumped through the high-temperature reservoir to a supercritical state, after which it will expand through a turbine
to generate electricity from the stored heat.

Company Values
Entity Description
Brenmiller Energy utilizes an aggregate rock mix (custom to the region) to offer bulk, thermal storage, also offering integrated turbine technology that allows that heat to be converted into electrical energy. This Israel-based firm was founded in 2012 to develop solar thermal generation technology by former Siemens Solar Thermal Energy business unit CEO. A joint Brenmiller Energy-Power Authority of the State of New York project focused on high temperature storage was approved as part of the U.S.-Israeli Binational Industrial Research and Development (BIRD) Energy program.
