These systems utilize renewable solar energy to pump water, making them an efficient, eco-friendly, and cost-effective solution for regions with unreliable electricity or high energy costs. Here's a detailed guide on how these systems work, the types available, and the benefits they provide.
In many parts of the world, solar pumping has become the preferred technology for water supply in refugee settlements due to the low operating costs of these systems as compared to water trucking or pumping with diesel or petrol (gasoline) generator sets. Figure 1 below illustrates many of the common features of a standalone solar pumping system.
For a standalone solar pumping system, water will only be produced when sunlight is available, therefore, less storage equates to more risk that the system will not meet daily demand. Water storage facilities for irrigation systems should be designed for seasonal fluctuations in demand.
The water pump, powered by the electricity from the solar panels, extracts water from a borehole, reservoir, or other sources. Solar water pumps can be DC or AC powered, depending on the system's configuration. 4. Water Storage System To ensure a consistent water supply during low sunlight periods or at night, many systems include storage tanks.
