Brenmiller was selected for its outstanding contributions to the field of energy storage. Recognition for this award comes after Brenmiller, in conjunction with the Enel Group, inaugurated the world’s first-ever thermal energy storage system integrated with an active power plant in Santa Barbara, Italy.

“It is an honor to join such an esteemed network of innovative companies named as World CleanTech Awards winners,” said Brenmiller president and CEO Avi Brenmiller. “This award was made possible by our team’s hard work and unwavering commitment to developing innovative, affordable, and scalable thermal energy storage solutions. We believe that our thermal energy storage systems will help decarbonize industrial heat production, which accounts for nearly a quarter of all global emissions.”

The 2022 World CleanTech Awards (“WCA”) winners were nominated and voted on by a jury of solar industry experts, including past winners of the Solar Future Today Visionary Influencers Awards and past WCA Awardees.
