REIL seeks 1.2 million multi-crystalline silicon solar cells

Share

Jaipur-based Rajasthan Electronics & Instruments Limited has invited bids to supply an aggregate 1.2 million quantities of multi-crystalline silicon solar cells rated for 4.50W (4-/5-busbar), 4.60W (5-busbar) and 4.67W (5-busbar) peak power.

Of these, 600,000 cells (200,000 quantities of 4.50W, 4.60W and 4.67W each) are tendered under the domestic content requirement (DCR) category and are to be supplied by Indian manufacturers only. 

The solar cells should be 156×156 ± 1.0mm or 156.75×156.75 ± 1.0 mm in size, with cell thickness of 200±20 microns. Further, the front busbar must be at least 0.8 mm wide and the back busbar 1.0 mm. Cells with plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition of silicon nitride as anti-reflection coating are preferred.

To be eligible, the vendor should have a minimum of 50 MW per annum production capacity for crystalline silicon solar cells. It should have supplied an aggregate 4 MW of minimum 4.5W crystalline silicon solar cells to Indian customers during the last one year—ending June 2020 for DCR cells and ending July 2020 for others.
