In a tender file, MSEDCL stated just commercially shown and functional innovations might be utilized in solar jobs to reduce innovation dangers and accomplish the prompt commissioning of the tasks. Task designers can utilize various innovations, consisting of crystalline silicon or thin-film, with or without trackers.
