SECI is seeking 870 MW of monocrystalline silicon TOPCon solar PV modules for a project in Radhanesda, Gujarat
Total capacity is split into 3 packages of 290 MW each, with an option to add up to 17 MW per package at award
Modules must be manufactured in India and use domestically produced cells – enlisted under ALMM List-I (modules) and List-II (cells)
The Solar Energy Corporation of India (SECI) has invited bids for the supply of 870 MW monocrystalline silicon TOPCon solar PV modules to be deployed in a project in Radhanesda, in Gujarat’s Banaskantha.
These modules must be manufactured in India using domestically produced solar PV cells as enlisted in the Approved List of Models and Manufacturers (ALMM) List-I and List-II, respectively.
Glass-glass modules with aluminum frames and TOPCon cells must have a minimum efficiency of 21.65% and a minimum power rating of 585 W. The modules’ temperature coefficient of power must not be less than -0.30% /°C. Only one type of PV module with the same dimensions (1,134 mm +/- 2 mm) needs to be supplied.
The total capacity of 870 MW is divided into 3 packages of 290 MW each. Interested bidders may quote a single package with a configuration of 290 MW, 2×290 MW, or 3×290 MW. No other intermediary packages are allowed.
The owner – SECI in this case – has the right to add up to 17 MW of additional solar module capacity at the time of award to expand the procurement capacity to 307 MW (package 1), 614 MW (package 2), and 921 MW (package 3).
The broad scope of work for the supplier spans manufacturing, testing, packing and forwarding, supply, and transportation of the modules.
SECI launched the tender on February 17, 2026, requiring bid submissions by March 10, 2026.
In January 2026, SECI invited bids for a balance of system tender for a 870 MW DC/700 MW AC ground-mounted solar PV plant in Radhanesda. Its DC capacity could be raised to 920 MW in case of higher wattage modules, as specified (see SECI Issues BOS Tender For 700 MW AC Solar Plant In Gujarat).
