ROSH HA‘AYIN, IL / ACCESS Newswire / July 31, 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 issued a letter from its Chief Executive Officer, Avi Brenmiller.

To our shareholders, partners, and supporters:

On July 28, 2025, we announced a transformative equity financing agreement with Alpha Capital Anstalt (“Alpha”)-our largest shareholder and one of our most trusted partners.

We believe that the new capital that can become available under the terms of the agreement will enable us to scale and grow faster.

The main benefit for the Company is not just cash, it is focus, attention and balance. Until now, a significant portion of the Company’s efforts have been devoted to securing the capital needed to sustain operations and growth. With the latest financing in place, the Company is now well-capitalized and positioned to shift its focus toward executing on its core strategy-delivering long-term value through product innovation, commercial deployment and scaling operations. This funding milestone marks a turning point, enabling the team to prioritize operational excellence and strategic growth initiatives.

Today, we believe we have the tools to move faster and stronger than ever before and that the Alpha agreement gives us the fuel to keep going-and to go further. We believe that the funding that can reach up to $25 million in stages, reflects a commercial ramp. As a first stage we have received the first $1.2 million in funding. The second stage includes $3.8 million equity financing subject to obtaining shareholder approval and other closing conditions. Alpha has additional investment rights for up to another $20 million through follow-on tranches. If we meet certain conditions, Alpha has agreed to provide us with $15 million over a two-year period beginning after the second stage closes. The structure supports the Company’s growth plans.

What we are building is already taking shape across three continents. In Israel, our bGen™ ZERO system is being deployed at the Tempo Beverages manufacturing plant-producer of Pepsi, Heineken, and other global brands-in a project that will replace fossil-fueled boilers and demonstrate that clean heat can meet the demands of heavy industry. The upcoming launch of the Tempo facility marks a major shift for us, transforming Brenmiller from a bespoke systems maker into a scalable TES solution. In Spain, the European Hydrogen Bank, has granted €25 million funding to SolWinHy Cádiz S.L. in Spain. From the total project, we estimate that our supply of the bGen TES system for the project to be approximately €7 million. There, our system would enable off-grid green methanol production with real-time heat balancing-entirely without fossil fuels.

And in Europe, our projects are estimated to receive approximately €11 million. The latest: Brenmiller Europe S.L. (“Brenmiller Europe”), the Company’s Spain-based joint venture, is expected to supply distributed bGen™️ TES systems with a total electrical charge capacity of approximately 5 MWe, representing approximately €4 million in revenues to Brenmiller Europe for the equipment sale. The project is expected to avoid 1.45 million tons of CO₂, and set the stage for repeatable decarbonization of industrial heat.

Meanwhile, we have signed a strategic non-binding Memorandum of Understanding with ENASCO Ltd., a specialist in Small Modular Reactor (“SMR”) development. Together, we are developing a hybrid SMR + bGen platform designed for artificial intelligence (“AI”) data centers, hydrogen production, and high-resilience baseload power. Under the terms of the Memorandum of Understanding: by 2030, we aim to complete $50 million in commercial deployments; and by 2035, we plan to have 15-20 hybrid nuclear-TES projects in development, with a potential value of up to $650 million.

Europe is not waiting. Policy is in motion. Funding is real. And we are aligned with all of it. We believe that we are qualified to apply for funding through the EU Innovation Fund, as part of their €1 billion auction expected to open in December 2025. And with the pathway to further funding from Alpha, we believe we will have the resources to pursue the opportunities in front of us – aggressively, confidently, and on schedule.

Yes, the journey from zero to 100 takes time. But we are no longer ramping – we are accelerating.

To those who stayed with us through the stillness, thank you. We are excited to show what Brenmiller can do next.

Sincerely,

Avi Brenmiller
Chief Executive Officer
Brenmiller Energy Ltd.

SCOTTSDALE, AZ / ACCESS Newswire / July 31, 2025 / Spirits Capital Corporation, a fintech company transforming how spirits barrels are traded, valued, and managed through its creation of the Distilled Barrels Financial Exchange (DBFEX™), announced today the launch of a pioneering proprietary insurance program tailored specifically for the unique needs of distilleries, brands, and barrel owners dealing with aging spirits. This customizable insurance solution stands out as one of its kind in the industry.

DBFEX Insurance Services is designed to address a critical gap in the market for businesses involved in the production, investment and storage of premium spirits. As spirits age, their value while in the barrel can fluctuate due to factors such as market demand, storage conditions, and time. Recognizing this, Spirits Capital aims to provide distilleries, brands and barrel owners with comprehensive coverage that reflects the current value and risk associated with their aging assets.

With a focus on flexibility, the DBFEX™ insurance program allows Spirits Capital to customize the client’s insurance solutions to suit their specific needs. This feature ensures that businesses can adequately protect their assets while aligning coverage with their growth strategies and investment goals.

Spirits Capital has worked diligently to develop this insurance service, engaging with stakeholders in the spirits industry to better understand their challenges and preferences. The goal is to offer a safety net that reassures businesses they can secure their investment in aging spirits without compromising due to excessive costs.

Todd Sanders, Chairman and CEO of Spirits Capital, stated, “By leveraging the size and scalability of the DBFEX™ we are able to offer barrel owners, large and small, a turnkey insurance solution at the most competitive pricing in the industry.”

The launch of DBFEX Insurance Services comes at a crucial time as the spirits market evolves and the demand for high quality, aged products continues to increase. Distilleries, brands, and barrel owners are encouraged to explore the new program and discover how it can enhance their operational security and financial planning.

About DBFEX™ and Spirits Capital Corporation

Spirits Capital Corporation is a fintech company transforming how spirits are traded, valued, and managed. By integrating cutting-edge technology, finance, and real-time market intelligence, compliance and verification, we provide the infrastructure for seamless transactions and transparent pricing in an industry traditionally constrained by manual processes and illiquid assets. “We’re not just adapting to change-we’re driving it.”

At the core of our innovation is the Distilled Barrels Financial Exchange (DBFEX™), a Spirits Capital company and the world’s largest barrel exchange. DBFEX™ is the first digital marketplace for barrel-aged spirits designed to bring liquidity, pricing intelligence, and frictionless transactions to distilleries, investors, and institutions. The platform facilitates trading across whiskey, bourbon, tequila, neutral grain spirits, and casks from across the globe while offering additional services like insurance, cooperage, and consulting.

As Spirits Capital expands, we continue to redefine how spirits are bought, sold, and managed worldwide, bringing financial innovation and operational efficiency to an industry ripe for transformation.

TAMKO Building Products, Proud Partner of the Kansas City Chiefs, is excited to announce the return of Operation Rooftop, a roof giveaway sweepstakes created to honor those who have served in the U.S. military.

JOPLIN, MO / ACCESS Newswire / July 31, 2025 / TAMKO Building Products, Proud Partner of the Kansas City Chiefs, is excited to announce the return of Operation Rooftop, a roof giveaway sweepstakes created to honor those who have served in the U.S. military.** Back for its second year, the program will once again provide one current or former military member with a brand-new roof featuring TAMKO’s high-performance Titan XT® shingles.

In 2024, retired Marine Corps veteran Garron Abernathy of Blue Springs, Missouri, was selected as the inaugural Operation Rooftop winner. His new roof installation came at just the right time. “As a Marine Corps veteran, knowing that my home will be safe and secure with this new roof means everything to me and my family,” Garron shared. His story of service and sacrifice informs the spirit of the program, and its continuation in 2025.

Operation Rooftop is a collaboration between two organizations deeply rooted in the American spirit – the four-time world champion Kansas City Chiefs and TAMKO Building Products, LLC, a company founded in 1944 with a long-standing commitment to American manufacturing and veteran support. The program was created to recognize the dedication and selflessness of U.S. military personnel by providing one hero with reliable, long-term roof protection.

This year’s winner will receive a new roof built with Titan XT^® shingles, known for their Class 3 impact rating,* superior wind protection up to 160 MPH,^† and award-winning performance. Voted 2024 Product of the Year in the Home Protection Category by 40,000 consumers,^‡ Titan XT^® shingles demonstrate TAMKO’s dedication to quality, durability, and consumer trust.

“Together with TAMKO, we’re proud to support those who have served our country and give back in a meaningful, lasting way,” said Kellen Begnoche, Vice President of Partnership Strategy for the Kansas City Chiefs. “It’s an honor to help make a difference in the lives of veterans in our community and continue a tradition that reflects the values we hold as an organization.”

“We’re proud to bring Operation Rooftop back for a second year to recognize the outstanding service of our nation’s heroes,” said Chris Freeborg, Vice President and Chief Marketing & Product Development Officer at TAMKO and a U.S. military veteran himself. “The fact that we’re able to put veterans first means a lot to me. I think about the people I served with – the culture, the camaraderie – and I’m honored to help give back to that community. It’s a privilege.”

TAMKO’s support for veterans goes beyond this giveaway. Nearly 15% of TAMKO’s nationwide workforce is made up of veterans, with an even larger percentage in leadership roles. The company has also contributed time, funding, and materials to veteran-centered nonprofits, including Field of Honor, Veterans Airlift Command, and Patriot PAWS.

Current and former U.S. military members are encouraged to enter for a chance to win by visiting the Kansas City Chiefs’ Operation Rooftop website.

The college conferred more than 6,000 diplomas this year, with students celebrating in person and virtually

INDIANAPOLIS, IN / ACCESS Newswire / July 31, 2025 / Fully online private college, American College of Education (ACE), honored its 20^th graduating class on July 26, adding to its community of over 44,000 alumni. More than 700 graduates and their loved ones filled Nationwide Arena in Columbus, OH, for two ceremonies, while more than 4,500 viewers streamed virtually.

The momentous event included remarks from Columbus’ mayor, the Honorable Andrew Ginther, in the afternoon ceremony and a Star-Spangled Banner performance by Columbus Blue Jackets national anthem singer Leo Welsh.

Full of inspiration, the college’s 2025 Alumni Achievement Award recipient, Dr. Belinda Reyes, addressed the class with words marked by leadership, motivation and celebration. Keynote speaker – renowned author, executive coach and founder of the CaPP Institute, Valorie Burton – empowered attendees with insights on resilience, happiness and success.

“Years ago, I deferred my dream of achieving a terminal degree because my daughter needed me, and the constraints of a brick-and-mortar university did not have the flexibility I needed to accomplish all my responsibilities well,” Dr. Reyes shared.

“But ACE made that dream possible again – this time on my terms because I demanded more from an education, and ACE delivered with an online, flexible and rigorous program that didn’t require me to stop living. It asked me to live out loud and use every lesson in real time as a scholar-practitioner.”

Historically held in Indianapolis, the annual commencement celebration has seen a growing number of graduates, loved ones and volunteers, requiring a larger venue. More than 90 ACE employees traveled from around the country to volunteer and honor the graduates in Columbus.

In his remarks, ACE President and CEO Geordie Hyland said, “Today is not just about celebrating your achievements, it’s also about looking towards the future. As graduates, you have a responsibility to use your degrees to make a difference in the world.

Your education equips you with the tools to create positive change, whether it be in your workplaces, your communities or society at large. Embrace this responsibility and strive to make a meaningful impact wherever your journey takes you.”

Offering more than 60 career-connected online programs, ACE is honored to serve thousands of professionals through affordable, flexible and quality learning.
