17 Sep 2021 CW Team

The last date for bid submission is 22th September 2021. The opening date of the bids is September 23.

The successful bidder will have to submit 5% of the contract amount as the performance bank guarantee.

Indian module manufacturers or their authorised dealers and distributors are eligible to place bids. The bidders should be there in the approved list of models and manufacturers (ALMM) published by the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE).

The solar modules should come with a warranty of ten years from the sale date to REIL. For the initial ten years, the output of the solar modules must be a minimum of 90% of the rated power. After 25 years from the completion of the trial run, the output must be 80% of its rated power. Solar modules with a degradation rate of less than 0.7% per year will be considered.

The solar modules should be 100% potential induced degradation tolerant and comply with IEC-62804. The modules should work adequately in relative humidity up to 85% and temperature between – 10° C and 85°C. The solar module's efficiency should be higher than 18%.

The solar modules have to be supplied within two weeks from the delivery clearance issued by REIL.

A penalty of 1.5% per week will be imposed, if the modules are not supplied as per the schedule. The maximum penalty will be 5% of delayed supply.

About 20% of the tendered quantity has been allocated for micro and small enterprise (MSE) suppliers. Out of the 20% reserved quantity, 4% will be obtained from MSEs owned by Scheduled Caste or Scheduled Tribe entrepreneurs, as per the tender documents.

REIL invited a rate contract tender for 8,000 monocrystalline or polycrystalline solar photovoltaic modules of 160W, 320W, 325W, and 340W, last month.
