The Solar Energy Corporation of India (SECI) has floated a tender for the supply of 870 MWp of solar photovoltaic modules. The modules have to be manufactured using domestically produced cells. The overall capacity has been split into three packages of 290 MWp each, and bidders are allowed to submit bids for one or multiple packages. The modules will be supplied to project sites in Radhanesda and Banaskantha in Gujarat.
According to the tender guidelines, the scope of work includes the manufacturing, testing, supply, and transportation of monocrystalline silicon TOPCon glass-glass modules. The modules are required to have a minimum efficiency of 21.65 per cent and deliver at least 585 Wp under standard test conditions. Furthermore, the modules are required to be sourced from manufacturers listed in the approved list of models and manufacturers.
Earlier this month, SECI announced the winners of its 1,200 MW ISTS-connected wind power projects (Tranche-XIX) auction.
