There is a spur of tender activity seeking consultants lately to assess the potential and impact of solar projects.

A few days ago, Rajasthan also issued a tender to engage consultants to assist in framing the terms and conditions for the determination of tariff for renewable sources from April 1, 2020.

Previously, Maharashtra State Road Development Corporation (MSRDC) also issued a consulting services tender to assess the potential for the development of 150-200 MW of solar projects along the Nagpur Mumbai Superhighway (Samruddhi Mahamarg).

Meanwhile, Rewa Ultra Mega Solar Limited (RUMSL) had also issued an RfP for consultancy services for the environmental and social impact assessment (ESIA) of three solar parks in the state. The assessment included the internal evacuation infrastructure and associated transmission lines of a cumulative capacity of 1,500 MW.

According to Mercom’s India Solar Tender Tracker, the state of Madhya Pradesh currently has approximately 2.1 GW of installed large-scale solar projects, and 190 MW are currently in the development pipeline.
