Solar Water Pumps

Solar Water Pumps in Tanzania

We supply and install solar-powered pumps that lift water from boreholes, wells or reservoirs straight onto your field or into a storage tank for gravity irrigation. There is no fuel to buy, the system is simple to run, and over its life it costs far less than a diesel pump.

How a solar pump system works

Solar panels produce DC power during daylight hours.
A pump controller manages that power and protects the pump from dry running and voltage swings.
A submersible pump (for boreholes) or surface pump (for rivers, dams and shallow wells) moves the water.
Water goes to a raised tank, so you still have water at night and on cloudy days. The tank does the job a battery would do.

Why choose it

No diesel, no fuel runs, no fuel theft
Low maintenance and long working life when looked after
Cleaner and quieter than a generator-driven pump
Predictable cost: you pay once for the system, not every month for fuel
Works well with drip and gravity irrigation

Where it fits

Farm irrigation and greenhouses
Livestock and dairy farms
Community and village water schemes
Schools, health centres and institutions
Homes, estates and lodges

Pricing

What decides the price

Our quote depends on three things: how deep the borehole is, how far the water has to travel from the source to the tank or field, and how much water you need (cubic metres per hour or per day). Send us these three and we can size the system properly.

Support and maintenance
Monitoring, servicing and quick response if anything needs attention.

FAQ

Solar Water Pumps: common questions

Does a solar pump work on cloudy days?

It still pumps, but less. We size the panels and the storage tank so you have enough water to cover cloudy spells. Where water is critical, we can fit a controller that also accepts grid or generator power.

How deep can a solar pump lift water?

We work with shallow wells and deep boreholes. The right pump depends on total lift (depth plus the height and distance to the tank), so we confirm this during the site survey.

What maintenance does it need?

Keep the panels clean, check the controller and cables, and inspect the pump at set intervals. We offer maintenance visits if you prefer us to handle it.

Is a solar pump cheaper than diesel?

It costs more on day one, but there is no fuel to buy and far less to service. For most farms and water schemes the savings cover the difference within a few seasons.
