To be eligible, the manufacturer should have supplied and commissioned minimum 100 MW cumulative capacity of central inverters for solar plants.

The PCUs shall be rated for minimum 2.5 MW and maximum 5 MW. These should have inbuilt microprocessor-based maximum power point tracker (MPPT) to maximize energy drawn from the solar PV array. The MPPT unit shall conform to IEC 62093 for design qualification. Further, the PCU shall have necessary communication protocol and output ports to facilitate SCADA interface.
