New Delhi: State-run Indian Renewable Energy Development Agency Ltd. (IREDA) has extended the bid submission deadline for setting up 12-gigawatt (GW) of solar power projects t 15 June.
This comes in the backdrop of the union government extending the deadline for completion of green energy projects, due to difficulties arising from the second wave of coronavirus pandemic raging across India.
“The CPSUs are required to submit their responses by 15th June 2021 and the successful bidders are to be selected by 20th July. Earlier, MNRE had appointed IREDA as the implementing Agency for the scheme,” MNRE said in a statement on Monday.
