The Solar Energy Corporation of India (Seci) has opened bids to develop 10 MW of grid-connected, ground-mounted solar capacity in the state of Rajasthan. The plants – to be set up on a build, own, operate basis – will be installed in the town of Bagru Kala, in the Jaipur district.
The Jaipur Development Authority (JDA) will sign a 25-year power purchase agreement (PPA) with the successful bidder. The maximum tariff payable to the project developer for the electricity generated has been fixed at INR3.20/kWh ($0.04).

Very good projects..renewables is the future energy!
This has got to be a joke – tendering for 10 MW! Who’s going to bother when India has a tender of 10 GW by 2022.
10 MW would be more like it for a medium sized company!
