Agricultural Irrigation Solar Energy Systems-48801

Product Code: 004

The systems that utilize the energy produced by solar
panels to operate pumps and motors are known as solar
irrigation systems. These systems, also referred to as
agricultural irrigation systems, offer an alternative method
to farmers against high electricity bills, especially in areas
without electricity or where grid access is limited.
Compared to the high electricity bills, these solar irrigation
systems have significantly lower costs and, apart from the
initial installation expense, do not have monthly
operational expenses.
Various irrigation methods, such as drip irrigation, surface
irrigation, sprinkler irrigation, and micro-irrigation, can be
used for agricultural irrigation systems. By considering
factors like the field's size and the water requirements of
the crops, efficient use of water and maximum yield from
the irrigated fields can be achieved. The correctly chosen
solar panels, solar cables, and solar-powered agricultural
irrigation systems have an average economic lifespan of
around 25 years.
Considering Turkey's geographical conditions, the peak
irrigation periods for agricultural fields are between April
and September. During these months, solar irrigation
systems can be effectively used, even during cloudy
weather.
