Ahasolar Technologies Limited—India’s fast-rising solar solutions company—has announced a major win: receipt of a prestigious Work Order for Project Management Consultancy (PMC) Services from Singareni Collieries Company Limited (SCCL). The consultancy, valued at approximately Rs1.12 crore, will spearhead the establishment of 107MW cumulative solar power capacity spread across three key sites in Telangana. News of the contract, disclosed to BSE, marks a pivotal step forward in India’s renewable energy ambitions and Ahasolar’s project portfolio.
The SCCL order places Ahasolar Technologies at the helm of one of Telangana’s most significant solar expansions. SCCL—a leading coal mining entity transitioning into clean energy—is investing in grid-connected solar to slash carbon footprint while diversifying its asset base. Ahasolar, known for its expertise in solar software and advisory, is entrusted to guide the project from design through execution, ensuring quality, efficiency, and sustainability.
Key Highlights and Deal Specifics
-
The contract is for full-scope PMC services, covering design engineering review, EPC contractor management, technical compliance, site supervision, quality checks, schedule control, and performance assessment for 107MW solar installations.
-
The project is domestic and set to be executed within one year.
-
The Rs1.12 crore fee reflects a competitive package for PMC work on high-capacity solar installations, attesting to Ahasolar’s technical credentials.
-
There is no link to Ahasolar’s promoter or group companies with SCCL, nor does the contract involve any related party transaction, ensuring transparent and arms-length dealings.
Scope of Work: Project Management Consultancy Unpacked
Under the terms, Ahasolar’s responsibilities will include:
Reviewing the engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) contractor’s deliverables for each site.
Overseeing module inspection, site management, installation testing, milestone audits, and operational readiness.
Quality assurance throughout the project lifecycle, ensuring solar PV modules and ancillary equipment meet all regulatory and performance standards.
Coordinating between SCCL, EPC contractors, vendors, and site teams for seamless project execution.
Preparing periodic progress reports, managing risks, troubleshooting field issues, and providing recommendations for optimal project delivery.
Project Locations
As per SCCL’s published tender, the three solar sites assigned under this 107MW scope are:
-
Singareni Thermal Power Project: 5MW
-
Ramagundam-3 (comprising 20MW OB Dump and 17MW Ground installations)
-
Sathupalli (Kothagudem area): 5MW
These projects form part of SCCL’s broader clean energy program, which recently included other solar and floating PV tenders. The consultancy will be pivotal as SCCL pivots its energy assets from coal to renewables in compliance with India’s green energy directives.
Industry Context: Why the Win Matters
The award comes amid an upswing for Ahasolar Technologies, following recent consultancy wins nationwide and reflecting its expanding reputation in project management, engineering, and advisory for large-scale solar ventures. The SCCL project aligns Ahasolar with a major government-driven energy transition initiative, expanding clean electricity supply and supporting Telangana’s state development goals.
Conclusion: Timely Move Toward a Greener Future
As India pushes toward net zero, collaborations like SCCL and Ahasolar signal renewed momentum in solar project delivery, technical excellence, and public-private partnerships. The successful execution of the 107MW solar plants over the next year will not only boost renewable capacity in Telangana, but also position Ahasolar as a go-to player for utility-scale solar project management.
