Are you a farmer and having trouble irrigating your fields due to a lack of electricity. Now you can solve this problem by installing solar pumps.
Irregularity of power supply in many areas, the high cost of diesel, and many other problems create trouble for farmers.
These solar pumps generate electricity from sunlight and are especially useful in areas where there is a shortage of electricity.
With solar pumps, you no longer have to worry about paying electricity bills. Once installed, they provide free electricity for your irrigation needs.
Learn about solar water pumps
Solar water pumps work by using energy from sunlight which is used to draw water from wells, borewells, or other sources.
If you are looking for an eco-friendly option instead of relying on fossil fuels like electricity or diesel, solar water pumps are a great option.
Farmers use these pumps to make irrigation easier, which also reduces their costs and increases profitability from crops.
After installing a solar pump, you will be able to avail free electricity for several years. Moreover, you can sell the excess electricity generated by the solar panel to the grid during the off-season, which will also give you financial benefits.
For those farmers who cannot afford the full cost of buying a solar pump, the government has launched the PM Kusum Yojana under which subsidy is provided to the beneficiary. This allows you to install a solar pump at a low cost.
How do solar water pumps work
Solar water pumps work by generating electricity from sunlight. The inverter battery installed in the system converts DC power electricity into AC.
The pump includes a motor that draws water from a well or reservoir. It also includes a battery that stores electricity so that you can irrigate your fields even in bad weather or at night.
Benefits of Solar Water Pump
Solar pumps reduce electricity and diesel-related expenses. Under the new PM Kusum Yojana, you can get a subsidy to install a solar water pump for agriculture.
Solar pumps use renewable energy. By using it, you will not need to depend on fossil fuels. This also reduces your carbon footprint. Solar pumps require less maintenance than conventional pumps.
