The Maharashtra State Power Generation Company (MAHAGENCO) has announced that bids are being invited for the design, engineering, supply (excluding module), module unloading, erection, testing, and commissioning of 569 MW of grid-connected solar power projects.

It has been stated that these projects will be established under the second phase of the Mukhyamantri Saur Krushi Vahini Yojana (MSKVY 2.0), aiming to solarise agriculture feeders in various districts of Maharashtra.

Additionally, it has been mandated that the bidders oversee the operation and maintenance (O&M) of the project on an engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) basis for a duration of three years.

The deadline for submitting the bids has been set for May 5, 2024, with the opening of bids scheduled for May 10.

Bidders are required to pay a tender fee of Rs 29,500 and an earnest money deposit of Rs 200,000 per MW.

They are also given the option to bid for a minimum of one location or a maximum of eight locations from the 33/11 kV Maharashtra State Electricity Distribution Company substations list.

Furthermore, the maximum limit for each project site is fixed at Rs 20 million per MW, with the first-year O&M cost limit being Rs 400,000 per MW per project site.

To qualify, bidders must possess experience in EPC execution of ground-mounted solar projects on a turnkey basis, amounting to a cumulative capacity of not less than 40% of the quoted capacity, with at least one project having a capacity of 2 MW or higher at a single location. It is essential that the capacity of the reference project has been in satisfactory operation for a minimum of three months before the bid submission deadline.

Additionally, the bidder's average annual turnover for the past three financial years should be at least Rs 10 million per MW, and their net worth as of the last day of the previous financial year must be positive.

Recently, a tender has been issued by MAHAGENCO for the manufacture and supply of 750 MWp of solar modules for projects being developed under MSKVY 2.0 across the state.
