as recorded at the WTG meter of the WTG under testing should not be less than 95%
of the Net Expected energy generation (NEEG) estimated for that wind turbine as per
the certified power curve of the offered wind turbine.
iii. If actual generation recorded by the meter installed at WTG is equal to or more than
95% of NEEG, then the turbine will be considered to have met power curve
performance test.
iv. Whereas, If the actual generation as recorded at the WTG meter is less than 95% of
the calculated Net Expected Energy Generation (NEEG) from the wind mast data,
then bidder shall conduct the test again after making necessary checks & settings, as
per the procedure.
v. In case the test is again unsuccessful, technical explanation for this shall be given to
BEL. If BEL is satisfied by the explanation submitted by the Vendor, then the power
curve test shall be considered as fulfilled.
vi. In case BEL is not satisfied with such technical explanation submitted by the Vendor,
the Vendor shall compensate the loss due to shortfall in the test in the manner as
given here under: -
(a) For every 1% (or part thereof) shortfall in actual metered generation than 95%
NEEG, the Vendor shall pay to BEL @ 0.5% (half percent) of the Order Value
(excluding duties and taxes) of supply, erection and commissioning of wind power
project.
(b) In case the actual generation as recorded at the WTG meter is less than 90 %, the
bidder shall rectify the defects in all WTGs or replace all the WTGs as the case
may be in the manner that power generation is not less than 95 % of NEEG.
(c) The power curve performance test should be repeated again after rectification in
case the actual generation is equivalent or more than 95% of NEEG, the test will
be deemed to have passed the performance test. In this case, the Vendor will also
compensate BEL for the actual revenue loss in terms of KWH during the period
and compensate to BEL at the prevailing BESCOM tariff paid by BEL during the
end of financial year i.e., 31.03.20xx, when generation was lower due to
performance of the WTG.
2.6. The total compensation levied on account of the shortfall in the guaranteed values at
(b), (c), (d) and (e) above shall be limited to 100% of the O&M charges of the
respective year. If the compensation is applicable during the free O&M period (2
years), then the limit will be equal to 100% of the O&M charges quoted for the 3rd
year. Any Compensation arising out of Warranty during O&M period shall be
adjusted against the O&M charges to be made to the Vendor in the subsequent bills
during the year to be paid.
3.0 TERMINATION:
3.1 TERMINATION ON COMMISSIONING OF THE PLANT & EXPIRY OF THE
DURATION OF OPERATION & MAINTENANCE (O&M):
