The project will include Mono PERC half-cut solar panels, solar power conditioning units, GI module mounting structures, and systems for lightning protection and earthing. The scope also covers the provision of connecting wires, MCBs, civil works, electrical load distribution systems, transportation, and real-time monitoring systems.

Bidders must have completed similar projects in the last seven years, with specific experience requirements: - Three works, each valued at 30% of the advertised tender value. - Two works, each valued at 40% of the tender value. - One work, valued at 60% of the tender value.
