Bihar Calls for Bids for Solar Cold Storage Units

Bihar's government has initiated the bidding process for the establishment of solar-powered cold storage units across the state. This move aims to enhance the agricultural infrastructure and facilitate farmers in preserving their produce effectively. The project, managed by the Bihar Renewable Energy Development Agency (BREDA), targets addressing the challenges of post-harvest losses and ensuring better returns for farmers.

The state's agricultural sector faces significant losses due to inadequate storage facilities, especially in remote areas with limited access to electricity. By integrating solar energy, the initiative aims to overcome these challenges and create a sustainable solution. The cold storage units will leverage renewable energy to maintain optimal temperatures for various agricultural products, extending their shelf life and reducing wastage.

Bidders are invited to propose innovative solutions for designing, installing, and maintaining the solar cold storage units. The project emphasizes the utilization of eco-friendly technologies to minimize the environmental impact while maximizing efficiency. Additionally, it offers opportunities for local businesses and entrepreneurs to participate in the renewable energy sector and contribute to the state's economic growth.

The initiative aligns with Bihar's commitment to promoting renewable energy and supporting the agricultural community. By harnessing solar power for cold storage, the state aims to enhance food security, empower farmers, and stimulate rural development. The implementation of these solar-powered facilities is expected to revolutionise Bihar's agricultural landscape, paving the way for sustainable growth and prosperity.
