					</table><p>The Assam Power Generation Corporation (<a href="https://www.apgcl.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">APGCL</a>) has floated a tender to develop a 25 MW ground-mounted solar power project on a turnkey basis at Namrup Thermal Power Station in Dibrugarh district.</p>
<p>APGCL, along with <a href="https://cap.oilindia.in/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Oil India</a>, will form a joint venture and develop the solar project on about 107 acres of land at the Namrup power station.</p>
<p>The scope of work includes the design, engineering, supply, construction, erection, testing, and commissioning, along with operation and maintenance for five years.</p>
<p>The selected bidder will also need to evacuate the power to a nearby 220/33 kV substation of Assam Electricity Grid Corporation (<a href="http://www.aegcl.co.in/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">AEGCL</a>). The interconnection will require five inverter transformer stations, pooled together at a control room with an indoor 33 kV high-tension panel and a 1.5 km long underground cable from the control room to the grid substation.</p>
<p>Bidders must make an earnest money deposit of ₹20 million (~$240,100).</p>
<p>The last date for the submission of bids is March 4, 2024.</p>
<p>The project must be commissioned within one year from the date of signing the contract.</p>
<p>Bidders must have executed projects with a similar scope of work for a cumulative 20 MW of grid-connected solar projects in the last five years, including at least one year of operation and management of a minimum 25 MW grid-connected solar project in the last seven years.</p>
<p>The minimum average annual turnover of the bidders in the last three financial should be ₹600 million (~$7.2 million). They should have a minimum working capital of ₹100 million (~$1.2 million) as per the last audited financial statement. In case of inadequate working capital, they should furnish a letter from a bank, having a net worth not less than ₹5 billion (~$60.2 million), confirming the availability of the line of credit for more than or equal to ₹100 million (~$1.2 million).</p>
<p>Bids from a joint venture or a consortium will not be considered.</p>
<p>Last year, APGCL <a href="https://www.mercomindia.com/assam-consultancy-tender-20-mw-floating-solar-project" target="_blank" rel="noopener">invited bids</a> from consultants to provide project management consultancy services for a 20 MW floating solar project at Son Beel Lake in the Karimganj district.</p>
