EIE Renewables has won ITI’s auction to set up a 10 MW ground-mounted solar project at Naini in Uttar Pradesh.

The tender was floated in January 2025.

EIE Renewables must supply electricity for 25 years as per the tripartite power purchase agreement.

The project will be executed under a build-own-operate-transfer model.

The scope of work covers the supply, installation, and commissioning of the project, including power evacuation lines to the Uttar Pradesh Power Corporation (UPPCL) substation.

It also involves identifying the buyer of the power generated by the project.

EIE Renewables must also arrange for the leveling of land, civil works, fencing of the land, provision of lighting and security arrangements, and the setting up of the building infrastructure at its own cost.

It must also secure the permits and clearances required for the project’s setup, including those from the state government and local bodies.

ITI will provide 30 acres of land at its premises to install the project, transmission connectivity, and a bay to transmit power to the nearest 33 kV UPPCL substation.

The project is technology-agnostic, but EIE must promote only established, operational technologies to minimize technology risk and achieve timely project commissioning.

The project must maintain a minimum annual capacity utilization of 16%.

EIE Renewables recently won the West Bengal State Electricity Distribution Company’s auction to install 10 MW of grid-connected rooftop solar systems.

In September 2025, ITI invited expressions of interest for engineering, procurement, and construction of a 5 MW grid-connected solar project in Jharkhand’s East Singhbhum district.

Last August, ITI also invited expressions of interest to empanel a consultant to prepare a detailed project report for a 10 MW solar project at Bijuri Municipal Council in Madhya Pradesh.
