The Solar Energy Corporation of India (SECI) has invited bids for the design, engineering, supply, construction, erection, testing, commissioning, and long-term maintenance of a 45.6 MW ISTS-connected wind power project at Ramagiri in Sri Sathya Sai District, Andhra Pradesh. The project will be executed in Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) mode under Package-2: Wind.

According to the tender, the project will comprise wind turbine generators (WTGs) with a minimum capacity of 3 MW each, which must be listed under the Approved List of Models and Manufacturers (ALMM-Wind) issued by the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE). The cumulative project capacity is specified as 45.6 MW (±5%).

SECI has already completed the micro-siting of 16 land parcels and will provide both the project land and grid connectivity. The point of interconnection will be through a 33 kV pooling switchgear incomer feeder, reducing key development responsibilities for the EPC contractor.

The successful bidder will be required to commission the project within 14 months from the date of award and undertake 10 years of operation and maintenance (O&M) following operational acceptance. The tender will follow a Single Stage Double Envelope bidding methodology, followed by an e-Reverse Auction.

The bidding documents will be available for download from July 3, 2026, through SECI’s electronic tender portal, the Central Public Procurement Portal (CPPP), and the corporation’s official website.

The tender marks another step in SECI’s efforts to accelerate utility-scale wind energy deployment and strengthen India’s interstate renewable energy infrastructure while supporting the country’s clean energy transition.
