The Solar Energy Corporation of India (SECI) has once again extended the bid submission deadline for three projects in Telangana.

The deadlines have been extended for the 34 MW (AC) ground-based, 32 MW (AC) overburden dump based, and 15 MW (AC) floating solar power projects to be developed at the Singareni Collieries Company Limited (SCCL) in Telangana. SCCL is a coal mining company in India, jointly owned by the Telangana government and the central government.

As per the latest announcement, the bid submission for the 34 MW ground-based projects has been extended to June 12, 2020, and the deadline for the 32 MW (AC) OB dump-based projects has been extended to June 15, 2020. Similarly, the new deadline for the 15 MW (AC) floating solar projects has been set as June 17, 2020. SECI had earlier extended the deadline to May 13, 2020, from April 20, 2020, for the 34 MW (AC) ground-based projects, and the deadline for the 32 MW (AC) OB dump based was extended to May 15, 2020, from April 22, 2020. The nodal agency had also extended the deadline for bid submission for the 15 MW (AC) floating solar power projects to May 18, 2020, from May 04, 2020.

Meanwhile, the 15 MW floating solar tender includes setting up floating solar projects at two different sites – a 10 MW project at the STPP storage reservoir, and a 5 MW system at the Dorli site – on the SCCL premises.
