The Indian government has moved the deadline for submission of bids for its manufacturing - linked 3 GW solar tender for the second time , extending the date from 4 April to 31 March . The size of the tender had already been lowered from its initial 10 GW capacity to encourage more bids . India is aiming to reduce its reliance on fossil fuels and quadruple its solar capacity by 2022 . As part of this effort , the Bhanvi solar tender was designed to promote local ##isation of solar modules .
