Introduction
Do want to know all about SPIS – Solar Powered Irrigation System : Please go to the newly launched standalone Solar Powered Irrigation Systems (SPIS) website (www.spis-toolbox.org) , featuring three SPIS toolbox:
- Toolbox for beginners,
- Toolbox for farmers (new SPIS Web based App – to calculate design of the pumps),
- the Toolbox for experts - the updated version - Version 6
and additional resources (Publication about SPIS).
The Toolbox on Solar Powered Irrigation Systems (SPIS) is designed to enable advisors, service providers and practitioners in the field of solar irrigation to provide broad hands-on guidance to end-users, policy-makers and financiers. Risks related to system efficiency, financial viability and the unsustainable use of water resources can thus be minimized. The Toolbox comprises informative modules supplemented with user-friendly software tools (calculations sheets, checklists, guidelines). read more
Modules and tools touch upon:
- assessing the water requirements,
- comparing the financial viability,
- determining farm profitability and payback of investment in SPIS,
- sustainably design and maintain a SPIS,
- highlight critical workmanship quality aspects,
- and many more.
