The project is expected to be completed within seven months. Bidders are required to submit a bid security of Rs 5 million.

To ensure the contract’s performance, bidders must guarantee up to 10 per cent of the contract price within 28 days of the award notification. This guarantee will remain valid for up to 15 months after completing the project.

Manufacturers of solar panels, inverters, and meters must provide a 10-year extended warranty. The solar modules used must have a minimum capacity of 540 Wp, with a degradation factor of no more than 0.7 per cent per year and a minimum efficiency of 21 per cent. ????
