Jammu discom invites bids for 154 MWp rooftop solar projects 

Jammu Power Distribution Corporation Limited (JPDCL) has invited bids to select renewable energy service companies for the development of grid-connected rooftop solar projects with a cumulative capacity of 154 MWp. The projects will be implemented under the utility-led aggregation model in ten districts of the Jammu division under the PM Surya Ghar Muft Bijli Yojana.

The scope of work includes the design, engineering, financing, supply, installation, testing, commissioning, operation, and maintenance of 2 kWp grid-connected rooftop solar systems for AAY households under JPDCL’s jurisdiction. Where suitable rooftops are not available, combined rooftop solar systems may be installed on nearby public or government buildings, with benefits extended to eligible households through virtual metering, wherever feasible. 

Furthermore, the projects will cover around 77,000 Antyodaya Anna Yojana households. Additionally, the bid processing fee has been set at Rs 20,000 for each district. The bid submission deadline is August 6, 2026. 

Earlier, in September 2025, Rajasthan Electronics and Instruments Limited invited rate contract bids for the installation of a 5 MW grid-connected rooftop solar project on government buildings across the union territory of Jammu and Kashmir.
