To provide a level-playing field to domestic power equipment suppliers such as BHEL and L&T, the government is considering to make it mandatory for ultra-mega power project (UMPP) developers to obtain equipment through global bidding process.
At present, state-owned power utility NTPC obtains equipment through the global bidding process, while the UMPPs follow the bilateral negotiations route.
"The Ministry of Power has to work out a scheme to give same treatment as that of NTPC to the UMPPs," sources told reporters.
The ministry is preparing a Cabinet note on the subject, they added.
