Dear Patrons & Readers,
The Solar Energy Corporation of India (SECI) has issued a tariff-based competitive bidding tender (Tranche-XIX) for the selection of developers to set up 600 MW ISTS-connected wind power projects across India. The tender includes establishing the wind power plants along with the necessary transmission network up to the Interconnection/Delivery Point at the developer’s cost. Bidders could submit online proposals until November 24, 2025, with offline submissions accepted by November 26, 2025. SECI has set a minimum project capacity of 50 MW and a maximum of 300 MW per developer, with an additional allocation of up to 300 MW available under the ‘Greenshoe Option.’ Developers have the flexibility to choose project locations at their own cost, risk, and responsibility.
Bidders are required to declare the annual Capacity Utilization Factor (CUF) at the time of submission, which can be revised within ±10% but must be at least 22%. Developers must ensure energy supply within 80–120% of the declared CUF over the 25-year PPA period. Standalone wind tenders are rare due to the dominance of solar and hybrid projects; however, wind energy demand is expected to grow, particularly for data centers and other segments requiring clean energy.
In the previous SECI tender, 300 MW was awarded to Torrent Green Energy at ₹3.97/unit. Key terms include SCSD of 24 months plus six months, financial closure six months prior, EMD of ₹13.32 lakh/MW, and PBG of ₹33.30 lakh/MW.
