Rimini – March 6, 2025
Today at the Key Energy Fair in Rimini, the CEO of Futura, interviewed by Tgcom24, tells us about the costs of bureaucracy in Italy to develop new renewable energy electrical systems
Rome – Thursday 3 April 2025 – Our Finance and Investment Director, Francis Ravano spoke in Rome at the “Storage Italia” conference organized by Renmad to talk about the financial optimization of investments in Batteries and Storage Systems.
The event was attended by the main international and Italian stakeholders active in the BESS (Battery Energy and Storage System) segment.
The event was an opportunity to explain the reasoning to maximize the returns on the investment of a “Hybrid” Photovoltaic system associated with Batteries. Such systems will be increasingly crucial to advance the energy transition in our country.
Today and tomorrow November 21, 2024 Simone Micheletti, CEO of Futura Group will participate as a Speaker in Bologna at the Renmad – Biometano Italia conference entitled learning to Develop and Manage Biomethane Projects in an Efficient and Profitable Way.
PRESS RELEASE
BPER finances the Futura Group for the construction of a photovoltaic plant in Sardinia
Sassari, March 20, 2024
The Futura Group has obtained financing of up to 18.5 million euros entirely granted by BPER, thanks to the Corporate & Investment Banking Department led by Marco Mandelli, for the construction of a photovoltaic plant in Sardinia in the Municipality of Porto Torres (SS), through a “Green Loan” financing on a project finance basis, acting as Sole Lender, Mandated Lead Arranger and Agent Bank.
Futura is an independent group present in Sardinia since 2004, active in the development, construction and management of renewable energy production plants from solid vegetal biomass and solar sources and in the circular economy and agricultural sector. Today it employs around 200 people in Sardinia. The plant owned by Sardinia Solar Energy 2, which will be built on an industrial site of approximately 21 hectares, will have an installed capacity of approximately 20 megawatts capable of producing approximately 41 gigawatts/hour of energy from solar sources each year, avoiding the emission of over 21 thousand tons of CO2 into the atmosphere per year, covering the energy needs of approximately 15 thousand families with 100% renewable energy and also avoiding the import and consumption of significant quantities of fossil fuels.
The use of bifacial photovoltaic modules with single-axis tracking has allowed us to maximize the production of clean energy while minimizing land use.
“We are happy to consolidate our presence in the territory with the construction of this plant and to strengthen our structure in the Autonomous Region of Sardinia with further staff hires” says Simone Micheletti, CEO of the group. The Futura group developed and built the plant in less than 24 months from the filing of the authorization with its own Contractor – Solar Constructions Srl – coordinated by the thirty-year experience of the President Eng. Bruno Fisi.
Nicola Porcari, head of the Structured Finance Service of BPER, adds: “We are particularly attentive to this type of operation in BPER and confirm the importance of renewable energy and more generally of environmental issues within our strategy of supporting investments aimed at supporting the development and consolidation of sustainable sources while respecting and enhancing our territory and our entrepreneurs”.
