The TNGECL plans to develop model solar villages to serve as a benchmark for large-scale rural solarisation. The consultant will play a key role in identifying appropriate solar technologies, assessing local energy demand and supply potential and formulating an implementation plan that ensures long-term sustainability and replicability.

According to the tender document, the study will cover assessment of solar potential and village-level energy needs, evaluation of technology options such as rooftop solar, community solar farms and hybrid solutions, analysis of financial viability and funding options, regulatory and policy considerations, socio-economic benefits, community engagement and environmental impact.

The scope of work includes planning for solar photovoltaic panels, rooftop systems, solar streetlights, pumped storage, overhead tanks and biomass plants to bridge local energy gaps.
