Pumping water is a sensible and effective use of solarelectric power.Also called a photo-voltaic pump (PVP), solar water pumpsare a viable alternative to diesel water pumps.During the hot months, when water requirements arehighest, a solar pump will provide a reliable water sourcefor the farm.

A solar electric array generates electricity from thesuns light with no moving or wearing parts. A solar pumpis designed to utilize the direct current from the arrayeffciently, even as the energ production varies throughoutthe day.

Depending on the application, a solar pumpingsystem may use a water storage tank, which acts like aWater Battery during cloudy weather.

THE BENEFITS OF S OLAR P UMPING Solar pumping uses a free, easily accessible andrenewable source of energy. Power bills are eliminated.With solar pumping maintenance costs are minimised.

Solar modules are strong, robust and encapsulated intotoughened glass in a sturdy, aluminium frame that will last

even in harsh environmental conditions.Solar water pumping systems are reliable. Solar systems

wont fail on those hot, still days when the windmill standsmotionless.

Solar water pumps perform at their best and provid waterthroughout summer months When demand is greatest.

Solar water pumping systems need little supervisionrequiring only periodical checking. Solar pumpautomatically start soon after sunrise and continue towork unattended until sunset.Solar water pumping systems operate all year round,

even on cloudy dull days with little or no direct sunlight.Solar modules have no moving parts and an expectedworking life of at least 20 years.

SOLAR STREETLIGHTING


10/16

Solar Lighting are systems that sunlight converts intofiber optic bundles that provide other sunlight into roomswithout windows or other skylights.The bundles are led through openings and carries thelight where it's needed.The optical fibers end in hybrid luminaires where sunlightis joined with the electric light that is arranged to keep theentire light level the same within the area that is lighted.

S OLAR LAMP


13/16

A solar lamp is a portable light fixture composed of alight-emitting diode ( LED), a photovoltaic solar panel ,and one or more rechargeable batteries .Outdoor lamps are used for lawn and garden decorations. Indoor solar lamps are also used for generalillumination.Solar lamps recharge during the day. At dusk, they turnon automatically and remain illuminated overnight,depending on how much sunlight they receive during theday.Discharging time is generally 8 to 10 hours. Solar lightsdo not provide as much light as a line-powered lightingsystem, but they are easily installed and maintained, andprovide a cheaper alternative to wired lamps.
