SECI Issues List of Winners Under 97.5 MW Rooftop Solar Tender

SECI has issued a final zone-wise list of successful bidders for its tender for the implementation of 97.5 MW grid-connected rooftop solar systems

The Solar Energy Corporation of India (SECI) has issued a final zone-wise list of successful bidders/ developers for its tender for the implementation of 97.5 MW grid-connected rooftop solar PV system scheme for government buildings in different zones of India under the CAPEX/ RESCO model.

The final list of zone wise successful bidders/ developers along with allocated capacity, project cost/ tariff is presented in the list below. This final list is prepared based on receipt of acceptance/ consent and performance security on capacities against the offered/ allocated capacity from all the successful bidders/ developers.

The total capacity of 97.5 MW tendered has been divided into three categories, 10 MW comprising of CAPEX Model (Part-A), the second is 85 MW consisting of RESCO Model (Part-B), and third is 2.5 MW comprising of CAPEX Model (Part-C).

In March 2019, the agency had issued amendments to its tender, modifying a bulk of the key provisions of the tender to better suit the capabilities and demands of the prospective bidders. In this notification, the nodal agency had also for the first time extended the deadline for bid submissions to April 11, 2019. This was later followed by 5 more deadline extensions, as the nodal agency failed to garner sufficient interest in the project.

In June, SECI had announced that the said tender had been annulled due to migration of e-Tendering Portal of SECI from TCIL to another one. And that a fresh tender shall be launched on new e-Tendering Portal of SECI after notification of revised benchmark cost FY 2019-2020.

However, in August, the agency had reissued its tender for its 97.5 MW grid-connected rooftop solar PV systems scheme for government buildings.
