Sabarigiri Hydro Electric Project ( 340 MW) is the second largest hydro electric project of Kerala and is located in Pathanamthitta district. The reservoir receives water from [[Meenar-1 Dam|Meenar-I reservoir]] and its own catchment. Water from this reservoir is diverted to Pamba dam through an open channel. Taluks through which release flow are [[Ranni]], [[Konni, Kerala|Konni]], [[Kozhencherry]], [[Thiruvalla]], [[Chengannur]], [[Kuttanad|Kuttanadu]], [[Mavelikkara|Mavelikara]] and [[Karthikappally]].<ref>{{Cite web|title=Diversion Structures in Pathanamthitta district – KSEB Limted Dam Safety Organisation|url=https://dams.kseb.in/?p=190|access-date=2021-07-28|language=en-US}}{{CC-notice|cc=bysa2.5}} </ref><br />
