SALIENT FEATURES OF KULTI SOLAR PV POWER PROJECT (25 MWp)
1.0 INTRODUCTION
NTPC – SAIL Power Company Limited (NSPCL) is a 50:50 joint venture of two Maharatna PSUs i.e.
NTPC LTD, an integrated power major and SAIL, one of the largest steel producing companies of India.
It has an installed capacity of coal based 814 MW at different SAIL locations i.e Bhilai, Rourkela &
Durgapur. Out of 814 MW of installed capacity 564 MW capacity is for captive use of SAIL plant at
respective locations. It is also undertaking the development of Coal based units of 1X250 MW at SAIL,
Rourkela (RSP) & 2X20 MW at SAIL, Durgapur (DSP), which are under construction phase by BHEL &
ISGEC Ltd respectively.
NSPCL is intending to set up a 25 MWp Solar PV plant at Kulti Steel Plant of SAIL in West Bengal. The
25 MWp Solar PV power project shall be implemented in a single EPC package under domestic
competitive bidding using Non DCR (open category) manufactured PV modules and cells. Further this
EPC package is proposed to be awarded to single bidder in single block of 25 MWp with suitable award
criteria intimated separately in the bidding documents.

Project Capacity- 25MWp Solar PV Project (To be awarded to single bidder in single block of 25MWp
5.0 BRIEF SCOPE OF WORK
Please refer detailed NIT/IFB.
6.0 TECHNOLOGY
In Solar Photo Voltaic Power Generation the direct conversion of solar radiation into electricity is
achieved by using semiconductor devices “Solar Cells” which work on the principles of photo electric
effect.
7.0 POWER EVACUATION SYSTEM
The entire power generated from the proposed Kulti Solar PV Power Project (25 MWp) will be supplied to
33 kV sub-station at Kulti Township after meeting the auxiliary power consumption of the proposed plant.
The power from Solar Plant will be evacuated by means of a double circuit 33 kV overhead lines / cables
up to the 33 kV sub-station at Kulti, SAIL Township and further be connected to the existing 33 kV
overhead lines to SAIL-Burnpur. However, the existing 33 kV overhead lines shall need to be revamped
after assessment of actual work involved.
