KOZHIKODE: The government is planning to implement eco-friendly minor hydroelectric power projects with the support of local bodies and cooperative sector, said Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan.
“The state government has adopted a policy to generate maximum power from solar, wind and water sources. The previous government had initiated many such projects in that direction. Along with the commissioning of such projects, attempts are being made to increase domestic generation capacity,” he said after inaugurating Cochin International Airport Ltd’s (CIAL) first hydropower project at Arippara near Anakkampoyil here on Saturday through virtual mode.
