The 9 megawatt (2×4.5 MW) project was started in April 1997, and was fully into commercial operation by July 1999. It falls under the "Small" category of hydropower projects (3-25 MW).
Phase-II of the project is to install a 6 megawatt unit, currently under planning.

The third Elephant Camp in Kodagu at Harangi, which is the ninth elephant camp in Karnataka was inaugurated on October 10, 2022.
The State Government had released Rs. 80 lakh for the project that will ease the burden of the existing elephant camps. Already, Kodagu has two elephant camps, one at Dubare and another at Mathigodu near Anechowkur Gate that borders Mysuru. There are eight elephant camps in Karnataka including the two in Kodagu and the Harangi Camp will be the ninth in the State.[3]
