About us

Rooted in the Godavari delta

Manihamsa Power Projects Private Limited (MPPL) is an independent power producer, incorporated in 1998 and registered in Ravulapalem. It builds and runs small hydro power on irrigation infrastructure in Andhra Pradesh.

Who we are

A family-run power producer with a long view

For more than two decades we have operated the hydro station at the Yeleru reservoir. Our engineers, operators and technicians keep the units ready for every irrigation release.

Our approach is simple: work with the water system, not against it. Irrigation comes first, generation follows, and every unit we produce is clean electricity for the region.
