Electricity Minister Aryadan Muhammed inaugurated the 1 MW power generation unit at a function.
The plant, located on a vacant plot close to KSEB's 220-KV substation at Kanjikode, was installed at a cost of Rs 7 crore, KSEBL sources here said.
The power, generated from around 4,000 panels of the solar plant, would be transferred to the Kanjikode KV station, they said.
The plant is a part of the agency's plan to set up a string of such power generation units in vacant plots lying adjacent to KSEB stations.
