Introduction to Solar Water Pumping
• Solar Basics:
A solar powered water pumping system is made up
of two components,
1) Solar panels:
-Photovoltaic module
2)Pumps:
-Centrifugal
-Submersible
Solar module
• The power supply consists of PV panels,
-PV panel produce Direct Current(DC) and are
made up of many cells wired in series.

• The smallest element of a PV panel is the Fig1.Solar panel

solar cell.
-Each solar cell has two or more specially Fig2.Solar cell
prepared
layers of semiconductors material that produce DC electricity
when exposed to light.

• One or more solar panels installed


together is called a solar array.
Fig3.Solar array
Series and Parallel configuration
• Individual PV panels can be wired in series or
parallel to obtain the required voltage or current
needed to run the pump.

• The voltage and current output from panels wired in


parallel is the exact opposite of series wired panels.

• Panels wired in parallel, the current (amps) output


is the sum of all the currents (amps) from the panels
and the voltage is equal to the voltage output from an
individual panel.
Types of Solar Powered Water Pumping
System
• There are two basic types of solar powered
water pumping systems,
1)Battery based
2)Solar direct

• A variety of factors must be considered in determining


the optimum system for a particular application.

Battery based Solar Water Pumping
System(BSPS)

• Battery based water pumping system consists of


photovoltaic(PV) panels charge controller, batteries,
pump controller and DC water pump,

- Water supply for home or cabin.

- Pumping at night.

Solar-Direct Water Pumping System(SDPS)

• In solar direct pumping system electricity from the PV


modules is sent directly to the pump which in turn
pumps water through a pipe to where its needed.

• Solar direct pumping systems are sized to store extra


water on sunny days so it is available on cloudy days
and at night. Water can be stored in a larger than
needed watering tank or in a separate storage tank
and then gravity fed to smaller watering tanks.
Selecting solar powered water Pumping system

• Cost is a factor that must be considered when selecting a


solar powered system.

• Total cost depends on many factors such as the type of


system (Solar-direct, battery based) daily water
requirements, complexity of the water delivery system etc.

• For example low volume solar pumping system keep costs


down when compared to higher output solar pumping
system by using a minimum number of solar panels and by
using the entire daylight period to charge batteries or
pump water.
Designing Systems
• how much water you need;
• when you need the water;
• whether your water source is a stream, pond, spring,well;
• water available in gallons per minute (gpm);
• well depth;
• how far the water needs to be pumped, and with what
elevation gain;
• water quality problems (e.g., silt or high mineral content)
that may damage the pump;
• how much volume is available in storage tanks and how
the tanks are arranged
Installing the system

• When choosing a site, it is essential to avoid trees or


other obstructions that could cast shadows on the
solar panels and reduce their output.
• The solar array should be mounted facing due south
in a location where they receive maximum sunlight
throughout the year.
• Solar panels produce the most power when they are
pointed directly at the sun. For maximum energy
collection, the panel should be perpendicular to the
sun.
Advantages
• Low operating cost

• Free fuel

• Environmental friendly

• Easy transportation
Disadvantages
• Less output during
cloudy days.

• Theft

• Water quality
Applications
• Agriculture livestock watering / crop irrigation, home
gardens and drip irrigation systems.

• Domestic portable water for remote


homes, campgrounds.

• Pond water management and water transfer.

• Water supply for villages in developing


world.
Conclusion
Photovoltaic power is cost competitive with traditional
energy sources for small, remote applications, if the total
system design and utilization timing is carefully considered
and organized to use the solar energy as efficiently as
possible. In the future, when the prices of fossil fuels rise
and the economic advantages of mass production reduce the
peak watt cost of the photovoltaic cell, photovoltaic power
will become more cost competitive and more common.
