MSEDCL invites bids to procure 500 MW of wind-solar hybrid power

The Maharashtra State Electricity Distribution Company Limited (MSEDCL) has invited bids to procure 500 MW of wind-solar hybrid power on a long-term basis from grid-connected interstate and intrastate projects.

The minimum project size of a single hybrid power project for the intrastate projects should be 25 MW, with at least 10 MW project at one site. It should be 50 MW for interstate projects at one site to be interconnected to a single delivery point. MSEDCL will enter into a power purchase agreement (PPA) with the selected bidders to purchase wind-solar hybrid power for 25 years from the commercial operation date of the projects.
