    4. Technical Specifications (Minimum Requirements)
    Vendors must propose systems meeting or exceeding the following (adjust based on actual load audit):
    * **Inverter:** Pure sine wave hybrid solar inverter, capacity to be determined from load audit (suggested minimum 10–20 kVA or as per site assessment). High efficiency (>90%), MPPT charge controller built-in, LCD/APP monitoring.
