29 Jan 2025 CW Team

Vaibhav Urja, an engineering, procurement, and construction company, has issued an expression of interest (EoI) for the supply of solar modules for 6 MW solar projects under the Pradhan Mantri Kisan Urja Suraksha evam Utthaan Mahabhiyan (PM-KUSUM) in Rajasthan. The projects are in three locations in Rajasthan, each with a 2 MW capacity. Selected bidders must provide monocrystalline or high-efficiency polycrystalline modules with a capacity utilization factor of 19% annually for 25 years. They must also provide modules with a temperature coefficient, warranty terms, and degradation rates. The modules must have importer-exporter code certifications and comply with the Bureau of Indian Standards. Bidders must submit module efficiency, dimensions and weight, rated power output, module degradation rate, details of the projects executed in India, and a brief description of the projects and their capacity. Rajasthan and Maharashtra have been the frontrunners in adopting the PM KUSUM Component C, demonstrating progress in scaling renewable energy infrastructure to meet the dual objectives of sustainable agriculture and energy security. The two states are set to contribute over 10 GW of solar capacity under the PM-KUSUM program by 2025. In December last year, Jaipur Vidyut Vitran Nigam invited two EoIs for grid-connected solar power projects with a cumulative capacity of 62.16 MW under Component A of PM KUSUM in Rajasthan. The scope of work involved designing, surveying, supplying, installing, testing, and commissioning grid-connected solar projects in the renewable energy service company mode, the associated 11 kV line to connect them with various 33/11 kV sub-stations and operation and maintenance and remote monitoring system for 25 years.
