Jayram Industries Wins O&M Contract for BHEL’s Solar Project

Bharat Heavy Electricals (BHEL) has given a 19-month contract to Hyderabad-based Jayram Industries India (JIIPL) to operate and maintain a 65 MW solar power facility in Neyveli, Tamil Nadu. The project, which is owned by NLC India, was put out to bid by BHEL in May 2023. Nine businesses submitted technical proposals for the contract; four of those qualified to submit financial bids, and Jayram Industries was given the job.

The turnkey service provider will be in charge of employing maintenance staff to carry out activities including transformer oil filtration, vegetation removal, and solar panel cleaning.

In accordance with the terms of the tender, the JIIPL is required to install and commission all the machinery and auxiliary devices in accordance with the order and procedure specified by BHEL, based on the technical requirements.

It also stated that BHEL would have the right to impose liquidated damages at the rate of 0.5% of the contract value per week of delay or part thereof, up to a maximum of 10% of the contract value, if JIIPL fails to maintain the required progress of work and causes a delay in the completion of the work.

The project, as far as full operation and maintenance (O&M) work is concerned, constitutes the largest initiative for JIIPL, according to the business.
