The Mallapur project
is located near the Mallapur Village, in Gangavati Taluk, Raichur
District. The scheme for power generation draws from irrigation
releases 113 Cumecs of water att net head of 11 mtrs. The Mallapur
power house is built with an installed capacity of 9 MW, integrating
two 4.5 MW units generating 51 MU, annually.
Sirwar
Mini Hydel Scheme
The Sirwar scheme envisages the utilisation of irrigation releases
of 11.1 Cumecs and gross head of 11.6 mtrs available from 3 flow-drops
located at the 173rd, 174th and 175th km of the canal for power
generation near Sirwar Village, Raichur talur, Raichur dist. An
installed capacity of one unit of 1 MW generates about 5.31 MU of
energy annually. The generating unit has one horizonal shaft and
a tubular turbine coupled to a synchronous generator though a gear
box.
Kalmala
Mini Hydel Scheme
The Kalmala Scheme in
Raichur district draws water for power generation from irrigation
releases of 7 Cumecs on the Tungabhadra left bank canal. A gross
head of 7.71 mtrs is available from two drops located at the 188th
km and 189th km of the canal. One unit of 400 KW generating about
1.8 MU per annum is under operation. The generating unit has one
horizonal shaft tubular turbine coupled to an induction generator
through a speed increasing gear box.
Ganekal
Mini Hydel Scheme
The Ganekal Scheme draws
from the irrigation releases of 75 Cumecs and a gross head of 3.8
mtrs - available at the flow-drop located at the 182nd km of the
canal near Ganekal Village, Raichur District. Ganekal’s 350KW
capacity unit, generates about 1.84 MU of energy annually. The prime
mover here is an induction generator working through a gear box.
