Ahasolar Technologies has clinched a consultancy contract with Bharat Petroleum Corporation Limited (BPCL) to spearhead the establishment of a 52 MW solar power project in Prayagraj, Uttar Pradesh. The consultancy firm secured the contract with a winning bid of INR 51 lakhs for a tenure of ten months.

The tender for the project was initially floated by BPCL in February, inviting proposals from various firms. Ahasolar Technologies emerged as the winner, presenting a compelling proposal for the venture.

Under the terms of the contract, Ahasolar Technologies is tasked with overseeing the entire project lifecycle, from concept to commissioning, ensuring adherence to stringent quality standards and engineering practices. The project aims to supply renewable energy to three of BPCL’s key refineries: Mumbai Refinery (8 MW), Bina Refinery (22 MW), and Kochi Refinery (16 MW).

The consultancy firm’s responsibilities encompass a wide range of tasks, including the preparation and finalization of engineering and tender documents, technical specifications, and the engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) contract terms. Ahasolar Technologies will also manage the technical and financial evaluation of EPC bids received by BPCL, ensuring the selection of the most suitable contractors for the project.

Additionally, Ahasolar Technologies will play a crucial role in planning, supervising, and executing project activities, as well as overseeing commissioning processes. Post-commissioning support will also be provided to ensure the project’s smooth transition to operational status and stabilization.
