RRECL’s 33 MW rooftop Solar power projects tender treats compliance as capability
Solar power projects tenders usually get judged on tariff, but RRECL has made entry discipline the first test. Rajasthan Renewable Energy Corporation Limited (RRECL) is running an open tender for 33 MW grid-connected rooftop solar photovoltaic systems on state government buildings, with net-metering and 25 years of comprehensive O&M.
The procurement (RREC/TN-05/2025-26; Tender ID 2025_RRECL_523100_1) follows a three-cover system, with two technical covers and a sealed price cover. Work is spread across Baran, Bundi, Jodhpur, Sirohi and Pali, requiring multi-district mobilisation. It is a long-tenure Solar power projects programme, not a supply contract.
Capacity quoting is bounded. A bidder must quote at least 5 MWp and can quote up to 33 MWp. Bid security is Rs 8,32,780 per MW, linked to 2% of MNRE benchmark cost, and scales with the capacity a bidder wants to win. Offer validity is 180 days from technical bid opening. Tender document fee is Rs 5,900 including GST.
Dates moved without recorded amendments: RFP from 24 December 2025, pre-bid on 02 January 2026, last submission 27 January 2026 (18:00 hrs), technical opening 28 January 2026, and technical status finalised 29 January 2026. At the technical gate, one bidder was rejected for non-submission of EMD or fee.
