Hydro tender with a twist: It’s not just E&M, it’s hydromech reimagined for this 240 Mw plant
May 16: 8This EPC tender isn’t a textbook electromechanical package. 8From Main Inlet Valves to SCADA, and from hybrid cooling to high-spec transformers, it’s a hydromechanical blueprint that breaks moulds. 8The scope forces bidders to unify mechanical depth with control precision—testing true multidisciplinary coordination. 8And a few small clause changes hint at higher entry barriers for many Indian firms. Click on Details for moreDetails
A switchyard clause that could sideline half the market?
May 16: 8Buried in the power evacuation section of this hydro mechanical tender is a transformer insulation class spec—unusual and demanding. 8Combined with rigid IPBD layouts and 220 kV switchyard demands, it shrinks eligible supplier base. 8It’s not exclusion by design—but by performance expectation. 8This clause may benefit firms already aligned with high-capacity hydro evacuation. 8Late movers beware compliance here is not trivial. Click on Details for moreDetails
BOO solar push with unusually deep grid responsibility
May 16: 8A fresh bid invitation for a 15 MW solar plant goes beyond typical clauses by placing entire grid connectivity risk including upstream approvals on the developer. 8This could redefine who participates. 8Then again, one clause on land possession timelines diverges from precedent tenders, potentially disqualifying firms relying on leased land or delayed handovers. 8Are these the reasons the bid dates have been extended time and again Click on Details for moreDetails

May 16: Daily report: DAM dominates as cooling load peaks across india 8Over 2 million MWh traded in DAM, with Rs 6.5/unit average price. Load centers in the north and west drove the demand surge, aided by clear day-ahead forecasts. Daily report: RTM prices stay elevated but with fewer buyers 8RTM average price hit Rs 11.29/unit, yet volumes shrank. Discoms may be planning more conservatively to avoid last-minute price risks. HPDAM trades at zero price clears without bids? 8A technical anomaly or a policy design flaw? HPDAM cleared over 3 lakh MWh at Rs 0/unit, signaling possible forced scheduling or bidder-free clearance. Daily report: renewable bids fail to keep pace with grid needs 8GDAM cleared less than 750 MWh today. Despite price gains, participation lagged, reinforcing doubts about its competitiveness versus bundled RE PPAs. Click on details for moreDetails
Rs 540 Crore FO and LDO tender hints at operational shift in Indian thermal power start-up regime
May 16: 8The isolated requirement for diesel at a specific plant could indicate evolving start-up procedures or fuel-switching at lower loads. 8Unlike many recent fuel contracts, absence of e-auction may force bidders to quote sharper from the outset—raising entry risks. 8This shift comes amid broader power plant operational updates India, and could reflect underlying changes in startup regimes, operational flexibility, or even emerging regulatory compliance tied to the environment ministry power projects India.

Inter-market comparison: PXIL is Present but Passive
May 15: 8PXIL hits Rs 10,000 too: But with just a trickle of volume PXIL’s DAM and RTM segments also breached the Rs 10,000/MWh mark but actual clearances were just 25–60 MWh per block. Demand existed, but the platform didn’t scale. 8PXIL’s markets are active only on paper Even where bids existed (like GDAM), no matching trades happened. PXIL’s interface seems to attract buyers but sellers are notably absent. 8HPDAM on PXIL was a no-show Not a single trade or bid was recorded in PXIL’s HPDAM report.
