State-run Power Finance Corporation is looking for consultants for monitoring the ongoing electricity generation and transmission stations and for facilitating the removal of bottlenecks in project completion.

A Power Project Monitoring Panel has been set up through the Power Project Progress Assessment Society to monitor the progress of power projects so as to commission them on time.

There is requirement of Power Project Monitoring Consultants in the area of coal availability and logistics, an official circular said.

The consultants will be appointed on a contract for a period of two years.

“The contract can be terminated on either side without assigning any reason with one month’s notice,” the circular said.

The applicant should not be more than 64 years of age on the date of appointment.

The primary function of the consultants will be to handle issues related to coal supply for power projects under development and in operation including any other facet considered critical.

Consultants will also have the responsibility of facilitating the identification of bottlenecks and suggest remedial measures for the requirement, it said.

For this purpose, the consultant would be needed to interact in his assigned area of function with State governments, ministries of the central government, financing institutions, regulatory agencies and other agencies involved with project implementation.

PFC is engaged in providing funds for various power projects in generation, transmission, and distribution sectors.
