An earnest money deposit of Rs 24,471 or $327 is required of all bidders. Before beginning work, the winning bidder must pay a security deposit of 2.5% of the contract value. Bidders must pay a performance guarantee of 3% of the contract value.

The scope of work includes operation and maintenance of a 1 MW solar PV power project that includes a 1500 kVA transformer, high tension and low tension panels, four 250 kW solar grid type inverters, 3,640 280 W solar panels, array junction box, main junction box, and programmable logic control panel with a monitoring system computer power evacuation arrangement.

A fine of Rs 150 or $2 per hour will be imposed if the contractor fails to provide operations and maintenance due to the absence of operating staff.

Bharat Heavy Electricals Limited recently issued a request for proposals for the operation and maintenance of 1.1 MW of rooftop solar projects in Uttar Pradesh and Jharkhand.

The Agency for New and Renewable Energy Research and Technology (ANERT) had previously issued a request for vendors to operate and maintain its 2 MW solar project in Kerala's Kuzhalmannam district.
