'''Sabari River''' is one of the main tributaries of [[Godavari River|Godavari]]. It originates from the western slopes of [[Eastern Ghats]] in [[Odisha]] state from Sinkaram hill ranges at 1370 m [[Mean sea level|MSL]].<ref>[http://www.kgbo-cwc.ap.nic.in/About%20Basins/Godavari.pdf "Godavari river basin map"]</ref> It is also known as [[River Kolab|Kolab river]] in Odisha.The Sabari river basin receives nearly 1250 mm annual average rainfall. It forms common boundary between [[Chhattisgarh]] and Odisha states and later enters into [[Andhra Pradesh]] to merge with River Godavari.<ref>{{cite news | url=https://www.thehindu.com/todays-paper/tp-national/tp-andhrapradesh/Sabari-in-spate/article14785708.ece | title=Sabari in spate | date=1 July 2007 | newspaper=The Hindu | access-date=9 August 2019 }}</ref> Upper Kolab project, located in Odisha across the Sabari is a major dam project supplying water for irrigation and Hydro power generation.

The 200 km long stretch of the river forming boundary between Chhattisgarh and Odisha drops by 2.25 meters per km length on average. This stretch of the river has substantial hydro electricity generation potential by building medium head (< 20 m) barrages in series to minimize land submergence.<ref>{{cite web|url= http://www.ohpcltd.com/index.asp?type=sindhol#MKP |title= Middle Kolab project, Odisha state |access-date=23 July 2013}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url= http://powermin.nic.in/whats_new/PFR/Orissa/Kolab.pdf|title= PFR studies of Lower Kolab HE project | access-date= 29 April 2013}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url= http://cdm.unfccc.int/filestorage/1/I/T/1ITVZS9Z3J4XFUFHDMLD5UUQPT4GA7/PDD.pdf?t=dEF8bW0wZWhhfDANqUxYS10YLwOQqYuW-Mb8|title= CDM application for 25 mw Middle and 12 mw Lower Kolab Hydroelectric Projects | access-date= 29 April 2013}}</ref> The surplus water of [[Indravati River]] in Odisha can also be diverted to Sabari river via Jaura Nallah through which Indravati flood waters naturally overflow into Sabari basin.

[[Sileru River]] (known as Machkund in its upper reaches) is the major tributary of Sabari which joins Sabari river at tri-junction boundary point of Andhra Pradesh, Chhattisgarh and Odisha. Sileru river has huge potential of hydro electricity generation which has been substantially harnessed by constructing [[Jalaput|Machkund]], [[Balimela Reservoir|Balimela]], upper Sileru, Donkarayi and lower Sileru hydro power projects.
