19 years of experiance
in Renewables
BFP was founded in 2004 as a small engineering firm run by its three founding partners, Gianluca Biscotti, Antonio Festa and Danilo Pomponio. The professionalism, reliability and accuracy of the team’s work ensured the rapid consolidation of client relations all throughout the country, paving the way for new opportunities in the energy sector.
In 2005, armed with a dedicated team of specialised engineers and a fast-growing portfolio of clients, BFP entered the renewable energy market, utilising its expertise in the electrical engineering sector to develop preliminary and final designs, obtaining authorisations for the construction of solar and wind renewable energy systems.
In the years that followed, the explosion of the renewable energy sector in Italy and Europe afforded BFP the opportunity to fine-tune its engineering expertise, expanding its offer to include services for the construction and operation of renewable energy plants.
BFP steadily developed solid relationships with highly renowned international EPC companies, investors, developers and partner engineering firms, with whom it continues to collaborate to this day.
Associations
BFP is member of these international associations
In 2012, following the national restructuring of renewable energy feed-in tariffs, BFP made the wise decision to invest its wealth of knowledge and experience into maximising the performance of operational solar farms and wind plants.
A new O&M division was therefore created through BFP Service S.r.l., a wholly owned BFP subsidiary with a growing number of O&M contracts in Italy and Europe.
In the same period, BFP also expanded its reach beyond European borders, opening up BFP Enerji A.Ş. in Turkey, and BFP Maghreb S.a.r.l. in Morocco. BFP therefore began to export its knowledge and expertise to new and emerging worldwide markets, where thanks to the contribution of locally based engineers, today BFP is a reliable point of reference and service provider.
More recently, BFP has also become particularly active in the public sector, participating in public tender submissions in collaboration with partner firms, enjoying a modest success rate.
In 2019 “STUDIO TECNICO BFP SRL, SUCURSAL EN ESPAÑA” was born, allowing BFP Group to serve its customers in Spain and LATAM with local presence and worldwide expansion.
Today, BFP is a multifaceted, worldwide engineering and consultancy firm. BFP has affirmed itself in the renewable energy market as a stable and reliable partner with all the expertise and infrastructure to handle large-scale projects anywhere in the world, while continuing to operate in the oil & gas sector through a small, yet highly specialised team.
BFP is rapidly expanding its network of international clientele, working in close collaboration with the main EPC companies, developers and investors to complete renewable energy projects in Europe, Asia, America, the Middle East and Africa, exporting its experience in alternative energy solutions to both emerging and developed countries.
Back in Italy, BFP seeks to continuously improve its standing in the public sector, contributing to the improvement of the greater community through innovative, sound, energy-efficient projects.
Today BFP is firmly committed to maintaining a high level of specialisation not only in its core business sectors but also in new, emerging fields. For this reason, both management and staff regularly participate in training and refresher courses, ensuring the entire team is constantly up to date with the latest industry news, policy, legislation and innovations.
Research & Development
The INGRID project
The INGRID project combined recent advances in Smart Grids and hydrogen-based energy storage to match energy supply and demand and optimised the electricity generated by intermittent Renewable Energy Sources while ensuring the security and stability of the power distribution network.
The INGRID project aimed to demonstrate the effective usage of safe, high-density, solid-state hydrogen storage systems for power supply and demand balancing within active power distribution grids with the high penetration of intermittent Distributed Generation (Renewable Energy Sources in particular).
The project’s main innovation consisted in combining hydrogen solid-storage systems with Smart Grid cutting-edge ICT-based active network control technologies for the balancing of highly variable power supply and demand in a scenario of high penetration of renewable energy sources.

Project completed on March 2017.
The offices
BFP Group relies on a team of 50+ collaborators, based in both Italy and abroad, who represent the driving force behind the company’s success.
