The Government e-Marketplace bid GEM/2026/B/7980940 covers Solar Photovoltaic Water Pumping Systems (V2) as per MNRE specification for the Department of Agricultural Research and Education. The public listing identifies East Khasi Hills, Meghalaya, and reports a closing time of 22 September 2026 at 12:00.
The listing describes a small-value procurement with no EMD shown in its summary, while detailed eligibility and technical documents remain on the source portal. It should therefore be read as an open procurement notice, not as evidence that a supplier has been chosen.
Technical checks for a hill-site installation
An equipment review for a Meghalaya site should confirm bore depth, static and dynamic water levels, required head, seasonal solar resource, pipe routing and access for maintenance. Controller protections and commissioning records are especially important when the pump must operate without dependable grid support.
Relevance for suppliers
The notice connects agricultural research procurement with a packaged solar pumping requirement. It is a market signal for vendors able to document MNRE-aligned equipment and site-specific installation capability; it is not an Aquasolar case study.
