To facilitate this project, Jammu and Kashmir Energy Development Agency (JAKEDA) has invited online tenders from eligible bidders for the supply, installation, testing, commissioning, and comprehensive maintenance of grid-connected solar PV systems.
The tender, which follows a two-cover system, seeks to empanel vendors capable of handling solar PV systems in the capacity range of 1 kWp to 30 kWp, inclusive of necessary equipment such as SVFD and other allied components. This initiative is part of the larger scheme to promote renewable energy and enhance agricultural productivity in the region.
The deadline for submission of bids is March 1, 2024, until 5:00 PM, with the opening of technical bids scheduled for March 4, 2024, at 12:30 PM.
Bidders are required to furnish an interest-free bid bond, in the form of TDR/FDR/CDR/Bank Guarantee, amounting to INR 50 Lakhs, payable to CEO JAKEDA and drawn in favor of Jammu/Srinagar. The validity of the bid bond/EMD extends for one year from the bid deadline.
With an estimated project cost of INR 1.4 billion, the selection process prioritizes vendors with a proven track record. Interested bidders must demonstrate a minimum average annual turnover of INR 200 million over the last three financial years. Additionally, the net worth of bidders, as of the last day of the preceding financial year, should not be less than 100 percent of the paid-up share capital, ensuring financial stability and capability to execute the projects.
To maintain quality standards and adhere to government regulations, the use of solar modules is restricted to those listed in the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy's Approved List for Models and Manufacturers.
By integrating solar power into agriculture, the project aims to reduce dependence on conventional energy sources, mitigate environmental impact, and enhance the resilience of farmers to fluctuating energy prices.
