SCOPE OF WORK
The Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur is a premier institute of excellence in the country. It is an
autonomous body, which was formed by an act of parliament and is under administrative control of the
Ministry of Higher Education. The institute has a very big campus consisting of academic, residential and
Hostels. It has 33kV/ 11 kV receiving substation and 18 Nos of 11 kV/ 415 Volt substations. The Institute
also has solar capacity generation of around 5000 KWp installed both in RESCO and CAPEX mode. In
this RFS the Institute desires to install 2900 KWp of roof top solar plant, 225kWp of ground mounted
solar plant on elevated structures to serve the purpose of car parking and 1000kWp of ground mounted
solar plant of normal height. located at the following locations. The ground mounted solar plant will be
located at Balarampur Pump House which has a separate power supply from WBSEDCL at 11kV.

The power from the roof tops will be evacuated locally in respective LT panels placed at the
Departments.
The institute also has a piece of land of approx. 15000 Sq mtr located out side the institute main
campus at Balarampur Pump house area. The LAT, Long of the location is 22deg 19min 21Sec N
and 87 deg 17 min 57 Sec. The land has a boundary along the three sides. It would be the
responsibility of RESCO agency to build necessary gate and security enclosure in the front
side.(Boundary wall is already present) Lighting arrangements would have to be arranged by the
agency as per security requirements at its own cost. The draft schematic of the ground mounted
solar plant is as follows.
The approximate capacity of the ground mounted solar plant will be 1000 KWp and would be called
the Solar park of IIT Kharagpur. A LED display titled 1000 KWp Ground mounted Solar park,
IIT Kharagpur would have to be fixed in a conspicuous location. The security of the solar power
plant will be the responsibility of the Company. The transformer, VCB at project location and also,
at the power evacuation point will be supplied and installed by the SPD. Any building sheds required
to be constructed for housing of Electrical equipment would have to be done by the SPD. SPDs are
free to consider outdoor Compact substation in place of individual transformer, VCB and LT
switchgears
Metering:
The metering at individual rooftop locations will be data communicable. The meters at the solar
plants will monitor generation at 415 volts . Though the institute has a LAN network of its own
except at the Ground mounted solar plant, it is advisable that the data from all the meters are
downloaded in the cloud server(in a GUI) with the user ID and password being shared with institute
officials for verification of monthly bills. It is also the responsibility of the SPD to engage a third party
agency which should essentially be a NABL accredited lab for yearly calibration and verification of
the meter and submit the report to the institute. The meter at 11kV that would monitor power &
energy generated from the ground mounted solar plant and would be located at Balarampur Pump
House.The SPD would have to arrange for export import bidirectional meter for the 1000kWp
ground mounted solar plant at Balarampur which has a separate power supply at 11kV from
WBSEDCL. For the remaining installations, the Institute already has a NET meter installed at 33kV
substation.
NOTICE BOARD FOR DISPLAY
The selected SPD will have to put a notice board (at least 180cm x 120cm) at its project site main
entrance prominently displaying the following message before declaration of COD.

Indian Institute Of Technology, Kharagpur
Kharagpur, District: Paschim Midnapur, State: West Bengal
B .The allocation of the Roof Top or Land by the Indian Institute Of Technology Kharagpur is only
tentative. Should there arise a case for vertical extension of the building or construction of building in
the allocated land the SPD has to remove the solar plant and install the same at an alternative
location indicated by the Institute. The cost for such relocation will be reimbursed by the institute to
the SPDs as per actuals.
CLEARANCES REQUIRED FROM THE INSTITUTE
The Solar Power Developers are required to obtain all necessary clearances and permits from the
Institute for setting up the Solar Power Projects, including but not limited to the following:
a) Water Supply from the water Works section to the roof tops. For the Ground
mounted solar plant , a deep tube well has to be constructed by the SPD at
it’s own cost.
b) Permission from Civil works for roof top plant and ground mounted plant .The
permission from Civil Works will require STADPRO analysis of the structure
design, load calculation, roof protection scheme and guarantee. The SPD
must submit the foundation details, elevation , plan etc for each individual roof
top and also the ground mounted project.
c) Electrical power connection for construction work is under chargeable
basis.The Location of the ground mounted solar plant is at a little distance from
the Institute power source from where temporary power supply can we arranged.
If the SPD can make arrangement for the temporary cable and its laying for
construction purpose only,the power supply can be arranged. The temporary
supply will be meterd and paid to the Institute by the SPD. Alternatively the SPD
can avail temporary power supply from the WBSEDCL at its own cost.
The above clearances, as applicable for the Project, shall be required to be
obtained from INDIAN INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY, KHARAGPUR prior to
commissioning of the Project. In case of any of the clearances as indicated above
being not applicable for the said Project, the SPD shall submit an undertaking in
this regard, and it shall be deemed that the SPD has obtained all the necessary
clearances for establishing and operating the Project. Any consequences
contrary to the above shall be the responsibility of the SPD.
Note: The SPD shall apply for all the necessary approvals, permits and
clearances not more than 90 days from the Effective Date of the PPA, which shall
be complete in all respects, incorporating the clarifications/changes as required
by the concerned authorities. The above timeline shall be adhered to, in order to
examine cases where the SPD faces delay in grant of the necessary approvals
and permits, for a period substantially greater than the standard period of grant
of approval by the respective organizations.
d) The following points have to be adhered for roof top solar plants .
The minimum bottom clearance for the roof top installations>=600mm
Liability of water proofing of the roof or terrace and subsequent defect
liability shall be of the agency for damages caused by them during
installations.
Water for cleaning of the SPVs may be arranged by the agency for roof
top from existing source and by means of deep tube well for the ground
mounted site
Modifications of existing structures shall be after the approval of
competent authority. Any damage to existing structures will be the
responsibility of the agency who will be responsible for mending the
damage.
Security of the land mounted solar power plant will rest on the agency.
