Engineering and construction services for energy infrastructure projects
Progeco Group is an Italian engineering and construction firm rooted in heavy industrial projects—oil & gas, thermoelectric, solar, biogas, and decommissioning work. The tech stack reflects traditional AEC/infrastructure maturity: Primavera P6, AutoCAD, Revit, BIM, QGIS, and domain-specific tools (HEC-RAS, SWMM, PLAXIS). Engineering dominance in the hiring mix (98 of 124 open roles, majority mid- and senior-level) signals they are scaling capacity to execute multiple concurrent projects while tackling operational friction points around cost estimation, HSE compliance, and bid accuracy.

Progeco Group operates as an engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) contractor serving energy and infrastructure sectors across Italy and Libya. The company evolved from PROGECO (founded 1979) and consolidated into its current form in 2020 following a reorganization. Active projects span the full energy value chain: renewable installations (3,046 MW solar PV plant, solar tracker lines), thermal and biogas assets, decommissioning of legacy energy infrastructure, and ad-hoc facility upgrades. The organization manages concurrent construction projects at scale, with noted challenges in cost control, supplier coordination, and proposal accuracy—typical pain points for firms balancing large-ticket EPC delivery against margin pressure.
Progeco uses Primavera P6 and Microsoft Project for scheduling, AutoCAD, Revit, and BIM for design, QGIS and ArcGIS for geospatial work, and domain tools: HEC-RAS, SWMM, PLAXIS, and SAP2000 for hydraulics and structural analysis. SAP handles ERP functions.
Current projects include a 3,046 MW solar PV plant, thermoelectric and oil & gas work, biogas and biometane plants, solar tracker deployment, cogeneration facilities, and energy asset decommissioning. They also run demolition and facility upgrade work.
