Benefits of Solar Water Pumping
Solar water pumping offers a practical alternative to conventional water pumping systems in locations with adequate sunlight and suitable water sources. Globus Solar LTD helps customers select solar pumping solutions based on their water requirements, site conditions and operating budget.
Lower Operating Costs
Solar energy can reduce spending on grid electricity or diesel fuel used for water pumping.
Renewable Energy
Use energy from sunlight to power compatible pumping systems and reduce dependence on conventional energy sources.
Suitable for Remote Areas
Solar pumping can provide water access in locations where grid electricity is unavailable or expensive to extend.
Flexible System Design
Configure the pump, solar array and controller to suit the water source, pumping head and required flow rate.
Solar Water Pump Design and Installation
A reliable solar water pumping system starts with proper planning and the correct equipment selection. Globus Solar LTD helps customers identify suitable solar pumping solutions based on their water source, daily water demand, pumping distance and site conditions.
Our approach focuses on selecting compatible solar pumps, solar panels and controllers to deliver dependable water pumping performance for farms, homes, businesses and institutions.
1. Water Source and Borehole Depth
We assess whether water will be drawn from a borehole, well, tank, reservoir or another suitable source
2. Required Water Flow Rate
We estimate the quantity of water required per day to help select a pump with suitable delivery capacity.
3. Total Pumping Head
The pumping system must overcome the vertical lift and relevant pipe friction losses to deliver water to the required destination.
4. Solar Panel Capacity
We size the solar array according to the pump’s electrical requirements, operating conditions and available sunlight.
5. Pump Controller Compatibility
We select a compatible controller to regulate power from the solar array and operate the pump according to the manufacturer’s specifications.
6. Water Storage and Distribution
Where appropriate, we incorporate storage tanks and distribution arrangements to help ensure water is available when pumping is not taking place.
Frequently Asked Questions About Solar Water Pumps
1. How much does a solar water pump cost in Kenya?
The cost of a solar water pump in Kenya depends on the pump capacity, pumping depth, required water flow rate, solar panel capacity and installation requirements. Contact Globus Solar LTD for a solution suited to your water needs and budget.
2. Can a solar water pump pump water from a borehole?
Yes. Solar submersible pumps can draw water from suitable boreholes and deep wells. The correct pump must be selected according to the borehole depth, water level, required flow rate and total pumping head.
3. Can solar water pumps operate on cloudy days?
Solar water pumps can operate under reduced sunlight, but pumping performance may decrease when solar power is limited. System performance depends on the pump, solar array, weather conditions and controller. Water storage can help maintain supply when pumping is reduced or unavailable.
4. How many solar panels are needed to run a water pump?
The number of solar panels depends on the pump’s power rating, electrical requirements, panel wattage and operating conditions. A proper system design helps determine the appropriate solar array size and compatible controller.
