Governmental Organizations (NGO’s), Multinational & Local Companies, Philanthropists, Banks,
International Financing Institutions.
THE TARGET AUDIENCE
Project Name:Solar Irrigation Project
Primary Objective: To address Govt. of Bangladesh’s development priority of supporting
agriculture;
To access the farmers to green energy sources;
To facilitate the farmers with uninterrupted and affordable irrigation system;
To increase the agro production ensuring proper irrigation;
To make a green & healthy environment reducing carbon emission;
To help ensuring food security.
The Idea/Problem
Bangladeshi farmers rely on some 266,000 electrically powered water pumps – which consume around 1,300 MW electricity to irrigate 1.7 million hectares of land.
An additional 1.3 million diesel-run pumps are operated during the peak growing season to irrigate another 3.4 million hectares of land, using 900,000 tonnes of fuel.
Electricity supply for irrigation is presently inadequate & Cost of Fossil fuel is increasing which makes cost of crop production higher for farmers.

The Idea/Solution
The Idea/Solution
In Day time Solar energy is available, So A solar PV module can In Day time Solar energy is available, So A solar PV module can produce enough power to run an electric motor and pump.produce enough power to run an electric motor and pump.
No Battery required as more than 7 hours of sunshine is available No Battery required as more than 7 hours of sunshine is available in Bangladesh (full sun 4.5 hours/day)in Bangladesh (full sun 4.5 hours/day)

Low Maintenance, No Environmental pollution & Long Life.Low Maintenance, No Environmental pollution & Long Life.
Project Location
Any Off grid and areas in Bangladesh
Expand irrigated area in the off-grid locations;
Boost food production; Limiting its reliance on fossil fuels.
Why is it needed?
Ownership and Management
Financing Institution will provide Financing to the Entrepreneur; Farmers’ Group (Solar Irrigation System Entrepreneur) will buy
from the technology provider; Solar Irrigation Technology Company will install the Project; Farmers’ Group will manage water distribution & credit collection; Farmers will pay Water cost at the end of each Season.
Proposed Role of Each Party
Role of Financing InstitutionTo provide financial support for the project realization;To access the farmers to interest free/Low interest rate loan.
Role of Farmers Group• To introduce the project benefit to the farmers;• To manage water distribution & payment collection;• To payback regularly to the financing institution.
Project PlanMethodology of Implementation

Project Impact
Direct Benefit: 1. Increase agro production;2. Reduce cost of production;3. Maximize return on investment;4. Demand of electricity for Irrigation will reduce. Indirect Benefit:1. Electricity supply at community level will increase;2. Reduce environment pollution;3. Use of fossil fuel will decrease & save foreign currency;4. Finally it will improve education, health, lifestyle & support the
process of poverty alleviation.
Financial Analysis a 15 HP Solar Irrigation Project
Total amount of Land can be Irrigated : 33±2 Acres; Cost of Project: USD 45000.00; Project Life: 25 Years; Pay Back Schedule: USD 7500.00/Year; Breakeven Time: 6 Years;
Financial AnalysisComparison between Solar & Diesel Irrigation
For 33±2 Acres Land annual Diesel consumption 4500 litter. Total Cost of Diesel Irrigation/year USD 3937.50 Cost for 25 Years : USD 98437.50
Comparison between Solar & Diesel Irrigation
One Solar Irrigation Project can benefit the farmer (98437.50-45000.00) = 53437.50 USD
Particulars Solar (USD) Diesel (USD)25 Years Irrigation cost 45000.00 98437.50
Bottle Neck
Despite of great benefit solar irrigation is still out of Bangladeshi farmers’
reach because of its first time large
investment.
Conclusion
The Public, Private & International financing authority should come forward to invest in the Solar Irrigation sector.
I strongly believe that the proposed solar irrigation project will help the off grid rural people of Bangladesh
to achieve sustainable development.
