Madhya Pradesh Jal Nigam (MPJN) has invited bids for consultancy services for 100 MW solar and 60 MW wind power projects under the group captive mechanism.

The consultancy assignment will last until one year after solar and wind power projects are commissioned.

The last day to submit the bids is April 24, 2024. Bids will be opened on April 26.

Bidders must submit a tender document cost of ₹5,000 (~$60) and an earnest money deposit of ₹50,000 (~$600).

The selected bidder must furnish 10% of the contract value as a performance bank guarantee.

The consultant should support regulatory affairs, project assessment, and execution for solar and wind projects. The scope of work involves navigating regulatory requirements, facilitating approvals, and assisting in forming generating companies under group captive regulations.

The consultant must also guide project planning, including land assessment for solar projects, optimizing project commissioning, and ensuring power evacuation suitability.

To execute the projects and manage the bidding process, the consultancy must support MPJN by assisting with requests for proposals, managing bidder queries, and overseeing contract documentation and project execution. The consultant’s role extends to providing digital energy monitoring and scheduling solutions to enhance efficiency and ensure successful project commissioning and operation.

Bidders should have experience of at least one consultancy assignment from any government entity for setting up and substantially completing a minimum 20 MW solar or 15 MW wind project under the open access mechanism. Substantial completion means at least 50% financial completion of the power project.

Bidders must have an average annual turnover of not less than ₹50 million (~$601,551) in the previous three financial years.

They must have a positive net worth in the financial year.

Last October, Madhya Pradesh Urja Vikas Nigam invited bids to set up 670 MW grid-connected solar power projects under Component C of the Pradhan Mantri Kisan Urja Suraksha evam Utthaan Mahabhiyan.
