Rajasthan Electronics and Instruments (REIL) has invited bids to procure 180,000 multicrystalline solar cells of 5.64 W capacity. The last date to submit the bids is May 31, 2022. Bids will be opened on the same day.

The cells should be 158.75*158.75 ± 1 mm in dimension. The 5.64 W cells must be five busbars long, and the desired thickness of the cells has been outlined as 200+/- 20 µm.

The estimated bid value is ₹9 million (~$116,028). Bidders will not be required to pay any earnest money deposit to participate in the tender.
REIL has specified that the cells should be free from any cracks or pinholes, edge chipping, and smudges of paste on the front side of the cell.

The packing of solar cells should be export worthy to avoid micro-cracks during transit. The solar cells should be packed in lots of 100, and one box should contain solar cells in the power band of 0.05 W.

The solar modules to be used should be manufactured in India and purchased from a ‘Class I local supplier. The local content requirement to categorise a bidder as a ‘Class-I local supplier’ is a minimum of 50 per cent.

If an MSE bidder quotes within the price band of L1+15 per cent, they will be allowed to supply 25 per cent of the total quantity subject to the acceptance of the L1 price by the MSE bidder.
