REIL re-invites bids for 50 MW grid connected rooftop and small solar power projects in India

Rajasthan Electronics and Instruments Limited (REIL) has re-invited bids for the implementation of 50 MW grid connected rooftop and small solar power projects for government buildings in different states and union territories of India.

A single project can comprise several rooftop units, however, the minimum size of each project would have to be above 1 kW. The scope of work involves site survey, design, manufacture, supply, erection, testing and commissioning along with associated power evacuation and transmission system including warranty and O&M for a period of 25 years. Incentives will be provided to developers who are setting up projects on government buildings and institutions. The projects will be implemented under the RESCO mode and the last date for bid submission is July 28, 2018.

According to REIL, the projects have been retendered as a result of the new benchmark costs for grid-connected rooftop solar PV projects issued by the MNRE. The new costs will now apply for the tender.
