According to the information, the projects would be executed under the renewable energy service company (RESCO) model. The tender documents specified capacities for the solar power projects, which were 22.08 MW, 21.64 MW, and 30.28 MW respectively.

It was noted that the entity chosen as the successful bidder would bear the responsibility of supervising the operation and maintenance of the projects for a period of 25 years.

Additionally, the developer of the projects would be required to provide and set up the necessary 33 kV or 11 kV line, depending on the specific circumstances. This line would serve to connect the solar projects with the corresponding 33/11 kV substation. The tasks encompassed within this responsibility included the arrangement of bays, breakers, and the metering system at the substation location.

The tendering process outlined that interested parties were expected to submit an earnest money deposit of Rs 100,000 per MW of the capacity quoted.

Moreover, the party that emerged as the successful bidder would need to furnish an amount equivalent to Rs 500,000 per MW of the capacity allotted. This amount would serve as a performance bank guarantee.

The projected cost of each MW for these projects was estimated to be Rs 35 million.

To ensure a formal arrangement, a power purchase agreement (PPA) spanning 25 years would be established. The tariff for this agreement would be determined based on the levelised tariff endorsed by the Rajasthan Electricity Regulatory Commission (RERC). This agreement would be formalized between the chosen bidder and the Rajasthan Urja Vikas Nigam (RUVNL) within seven days of the submission of the performance bank guarantee.
