Project description

Water pumps play a crucial role in the irrigation market. The widely used electric pumps however suffer from low power availability and low voltage. Diesel powered water pumps are therefore widely deployed to compensate for the shortcomings of electric pumps, but are expensive to run, and polluting. Solar Water Pumps (SWP) can become a viable solution if the challenges of high purchase cost, financing and economic viability can be addressed. Because the economic efficiency of a SWP is directly related to its utilization rate, adopting an inclusive-ecosystem based approach can be a promising solution to address the economic viability of SWPs.
