Batteries for power inverters allow for storing the surplus electricity generated during the day for evening and night use.<br /><br />Of course, as an option, during the day you can turn off some of the working solar modules in reserve, but this will not solve the problem of the evening electricity shortage.</div><div><br /><h2 style="text-align: left;">Can a Solar Inverter 5000Watts Power a House?</h2>The Solar Inverter 5000Watts is a high-quality prioritized hybrid inverter. It allows you to power your home and charge your battery bank using PV power. Also, this 5000Watts Hybrid solar inverter 10 hours home conversion system offers a 3.5kwh battery storage to power your home during night time.<br /><br />So you will have enough power to cover most of your home or business’s energy usage. It’s making this a perfect starter system for most residential applications. It’s also a good entry point for any commercial space. This doesn’t require heavy energy usages such as a one or two-person office or small shop.</div><div><br /><h2 style="text-align: left;">How Many AC Can 5kW Solar Inverter Run?</h2><b>The major appliances for a 5kW Solar System are as follows:</b></div><div><ul style="text-align: left;"><li>Fans (5)</li><li>Lights (10)</li><li>Refrigerator (1)</li><li>Water pump (1)</li><li>LED TV (1)</li><li>Washing Machine (1)</li></ul></div><div><br />The items in the table can be used simultaneously. Adjusting the appliances may let you use the more items, for example, if only 2 fans, no LED TV and no AC are being used, a water pump can also be used.</div><div><br /><h2 style="text-align: left;">How Many Batteries for a Solar Inverter 5000Watts?</h2>The number of batteries you need for a 5000Watt Solar Inverter system depends on several factors, including the capacity of the batteries, the voltage of the system, and the amount of backup power you need.<br /><br />It would be best to consider various factors while calculating the need for the batteries to power the 5000w solar inverter, such as the battery capacity, voltage, and active duration in the hours.<br /><br />It is vital to know how long you want to run the inverter. Batteries will have limited capacity. It starts draining quickly once you connect the inverter. Even if no appliances are connected to the inverter, still the battery will keep drawing.<br /><br />The number and capacity of batteries should be such that the energy that is stored in them was enough for the dark time of day, it is worth considering that the night consumption of electricity is minimal compared to daytime activity.<br /><br />A 100Ah battery stores approximately 100A * 12V = 1200W. (A 100W light bulb will run for 12 hours from this battery). So if per night you consume 2.4kWh of electricity, then you need to install 2 batteries of 100Ah (12V), but here we should take into account that the batteries are undesirable to discharge at 100%, and better not more than 70%-50%.<br /><br />On this basis, we obtain that the 2 batteries of 100Ah will reserve 2400 * 0.7 = 1700Wh. This is true when discharging large currents, when you connect a powerful consumer sagging voltage and capacity actually decrease.<br /><br />Comparative to the small-size battery backup, the large inverters are used for emergency purposes.<br /><br />For Prostar 48V solar inverter 5000W will require 4 units 12v 200ah solar batteries.<br /><br /><h2 style="text-align: left;">How to Calculate Battery backup time for Solar Inverter?</h2>When you know the battery amps, it will become easy to identify the energy requirement of the inverter. A hybrid inverter 5kw would require a minimum 450 to 500 ah 12 V battery. Alternatively, you can have two separate batteries of 250ah 12V that would power the system for 30 to 45 minutes.<br /><br />If you demand to run the inverter for 1 hour, you would require 750ah 12 V batteries. As you extend the hours, more power supply would be needed in the backup.<br /><br />The 4 hours of the operating system may need a 2500ah battery. Remember that you have to double the capacity each time you do not want to discharge the battery fully.<br /><br />Assuming you have a 48V system and you want to use 12V batteries, you’ll need to connect four 12V batteries in series to get a 48V system.<br /><br />Let’s say you want your system to run for 8 hours and you want to use batteries with a 50% depth of discharge (meaning you only use half of the battery’s capacity to prolong its life). The power required by the system would be:<br /><br /><ul style="text-align: left;"><li>5000 watts x 8 hours = 40,000 watt-hours (Wh)</li></ul><br /></div><div>To calculate the total capacity of the batteries needed, you would need to divide the total power required by the voltage and depth of discharge:<br /><br /><ul style="text-align: left;"><li>40,000 Wh / 48V / 0.5 = 1666.7 Ah</li></ul><br />Assuming you are using 200Ah batteries, you would need approximately 8 batteries (1666.7 Ah / 200 Ah per battery = 8.33 batteries).<br /><br />This is a rough estimate, and the actual number of batteries you need will depend on several other factors such as the efficiency of the inverter and the solar panels, the climate conditions, and the number of solar panels used.</div></div></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9118680865187899256.post-11097597803743928462024-02-11T10:31:00.000-08:002024-02-11T10:48:19.609-08:00Harnessing the Sun: Advantages of Solar Water Pump Systems in Zimbabwe<h1 style="text-align: left;">Solar water pumps have emerged as a game-changer in the agricultural sector in Zimbabwe, offering numerous benefits that make them an ideal choice for irrigation purposes. </h1><div><br /></div><div>While the advantages of solar power have been widely discussed, the specific benefits of solar water pumps for agricultural use are worth highlighting.<br /><br /><h2 style="text-align: left;">1.

They are also both made from silicon, which is used for solar panels because it is an abundant, very durable element. Many solar panel manufacturers produce both monocrystalline and polycrystalline panels.<br /><br /></div><div>Both monocrystalline vs polycrystalline solar panels can be good choices for your home, but there are key differences between the two types of technology that you should understand before making your final solar purchase decision.</div><div><br /></div><div><b>The main difference between the two technologies is the type of silicon solar cell they use: </b></div><div><br /></div><div>Monocrystalline solar panels have solar cells made from a single crystal of silicon, while polycrystalline solar panels have solar cells made from many silicon fragments melted together.</div><div><br /></div><div><h2 style="text-align: left;">Monocrystalline Solar Panels:</h2>Monocrystalline solar panels are generally thought of as premium solar products. The main advantages of Monocrystalline Panels are higher efficiencies and sleeker aesthetics.<br /><br />To make solar cells for monocrystalline solar panels, silicon is formed into bars and cut into wafers. These types of panels are called “monocrystalline” to indicate that the silicon used is single-crystal silicon. Because the cell is composed of a single crystal, the electrons that generate a flow of electricity have more room to move. As a result, monocrystalline panels are more efficient than their polycrystalline counterparts.<br /><br /></div><div><h2 style="text-align: left;">Polycrystalline Solar Panels:</h2>Polycrystalline solar panels generally have lower efficiencies than monocrystalline options, but their advantage is a lower price point. In addition, polycrystalline solar panels tend to have a blue hue instead of the black hue of monocrystalline panels.<br /><br />Polycrystalline solar panels are also made from silicon. However, instead of using a single crystal of silicon, manufacturers melt many fragments of silicon together to form the wafers for the panel. Polycrystalline solar panels are also referred to as “multi-crystalline,” or many-crystal silicon. Because there are many crystals in each cell, there is to less freedom for the electrons to move. As a result, polycrystalline solar panels have lower efficiency ratings than monocrystalline panels.<br /><br /><h1 style="text-align: left;">How do monocrystalline and polycrystalline panels compare on key metrics?</h1><br /></div><div><h2 style="text-align: left;"> Monocrystalline Solar Panels Polycrystalline Solar Panels:</h2><ol style="text-align: left;"><li>Cost Expensive Cheaper</li><li>Efficiency More efficient Less efficient</li><li>Aesthetics Solar cells are a black hue Solar cells have a blue-ish hue</li><li>Longevity 25+ years 25+ years.</li></ol><br /><h2 style="text-align: left;">Thin Film Solar Panels</h2>The majority of solar panels deployed today are made from either monocrystalline or polycrystalline solar cells.<br /><br />There is a third type of solar technology, called thin film panels, which are usually deployed for large-scale utility projects and some specialty applications. Thin film panels are created by depositing a thin layer of conductive material onto a backing plate made of glass or plastic.<br /><br />Thin film panels typically don’t see use in residential installs because they’re much less efficient than mono or poly panels. With roof space at a premium, residential customers go with more traditional crystalline silicon panels to maximize production from the space available to them.<br /><br />However, thin film technology is less expensive to manufacture, and it becomes a more cost-effective option at a larger scale. For commercial and industrial projects without any space restrictions, the lower efficiency of thin film technology doesn’t really matter. Thin film panels often end up being the most cost-effective option in these situations.<br /><br />In addition, if you’ve ever seen flexible solar panels on an RV or boat, thin film technology is what makes those possible. <br /><br />Because they are (as the name implies) much thinner than a traditional silicon wafer, the thin film can be deposited onto plastic to create flexible solar panels. These panels are especially nice for RVs and mobile use when you might not have a flat surface to mount the panel.<br /><br /><h2 style="text-align: left;">Monocrystalline vs. Polycrystalline Solar Panels: Which are right for you?</h2>Saving money is one of the best reasons to solar, and whether you choose mono or poly solar panels, you will be decreasing your electricity bills. The option you choose comes down to your personal preferences, space constraints, and the financing option you choose.</div><div><br /></div><div>Personal preferences: If the color of your solar panels is important to you, remember that monocrystalline and polycrystalline solar panels tend to appear differently on your roof. The typical monocrystalline panel will tend to have a darker black color, while the typical polycrystalline panel will tend to have a bluer color. </div><div><br /></div><div>If where your panels were manufactured is important to you, then ensure you know enough about a company that made your mono or poly solar panels.</div><div><br />Space constraints: You should prefer higher-efficiency solar panels if your PV system size is limited by the amount of space available on your roof. Because of this, paying the extra cost for more efficient monocrystalline panels that can help you maximize your electricity production will make more sense in these scenarios. Alternatively, if you have a lot of roof space or are installing ground-mounted solar, then lower-efficiency polycrystalline can be a more economic option.</div><div><br />Solar financing: How you finance your system can also play a part in determining which type of panel you choose. For example, if you choose a power purchase agreement (PPA), you pay per kilowatt-hour for the electricity produced by the system. </div><div><br /></div><div>This means that above any type of equipment, you are being offered, your monthly payments will determine your savings. By contrast, if you are buying your system, paying more for high-efficiency monocrystalline panels can result in higher returns on your solar investment.<br /><br /><h2 style="text-align: left;">What other Solar Cell Technologies are there?</h2>Although they make up a significantly smaller percentage of the solar panel market (residential and commercial panels in particular), there are other solar panel options available besides Monocrystalline and Polycrystalline. One technology you may have heard of is thin-film solar, which includes panels made from a variety of materials that tend to be more lightweight and flexible than typical silicon panels. </div><div><br /></div><div>However, thin-film technology lags behind crystalline silicon technology in terms of efficiency and performance.</div></div></div></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9118680865187899256.post-73257010157381652142023-04-03T00:43:00.004-07:002024-02-11T10:11:26.016-08:00Black Solar Panels vs Blue Solar Panels in Zimbabwe - Which is Better?<h1 style="text-align: left;">Monocrystalline solar panels feature black solar cells crafted from a single silicon crystal, boasting higher efficiency albeit with a higher price tag. </h1><div><br /></div><div>Conversely, polycrystalline solar panels showcase blue cells formed by multiple silicon crystals fused together, offering slightly lower efficiency levels but at a more budget-friendly cost.

Blue Solar Panels, after all, have long been the most popular type of solar panel.<br /><br />But you have probably also noticed that some Solar Panels have a more sleek Black look; these are becoming more common in recent installations. But which one is a better buy? We will take a detailed look at each type of solar panel to help you make an informed decision.</div><div><br /><h2 style="text-align: left;">Different Types of Solar Panels:</h2>It’s not really a matter of color. It’s actually the quality and the method of manufacturing blue and black solar panel cells that make them look slightly different from one another.<br /><br />Read on to learn how they are made and what gives each its distinctive appearance.<br /><br /><h2 style="text-align: left;">What Are BLACK Solar Panels?</h2>The term ‘black solar panels’ almost always refers to monocrystalline panels that look black to the eye. They are made from a single, high-quality silicon crystal. This silicon has a higher level of purity as compared to the silicon crystals used in blue polycrystalline solar panels.<br /><br /><i>*While there is another type of black module – ‘thin-film solar panels’ – their market share is tiny. As such, for this blog, we will take black panels to exclusively mean monocrystalline panels.</i></div><div><br /><h2 style="text-align: left;">How Black Solar Panel is Made</h2>Black solar panels use monocrystalline solar cells, which are made through the Czochralski process. This process uses a silicon crystal seed that is placed in a vessel or vat of molten silicon. The silicon crystal seed is slowly drawn out, along with the molten silicon, forming a block of solid crystal silicon. The silicon block is then finely sliced into silicon wafers, which are used as solar cells for energy production.<br /><br />Although black and blue panels are produced almost the same way, light interacts with a single-crystal (monocrystalline) cell differently than a cell comprised of many crystals (polycrystalline). This causes black solar panels to have a uniform appearance that looks black to the eye.<br /><br />The whole process of making a single-crystal black cell is comparatively more complicated than producing multi-crystalline blue solar cells. Also, a significant amount of pure silicon is wasted in the production of black solar cells, as all four sides of silicon wafers are chopped off to get the shape of the cells right.</div><div><br /><h2 style="text-align: left;">What are BLUE Solar Panels?</h2>The term ‘blue solar panels’ is used to refer to polycrystalline solar panels. Unlike a monocrystalline silicon cell, a polycrystalline cell is created from more than one raw silicon crystal.</div><div><br /><h2 style="text-align: left;">How Blue Solar Panels are Made:</h2>The process of making blue-colored panels is very similar to that of producing black solar panels. However, the step of drawing up the silicon crystal seed (used to form black monocrystalline solar cells) is skipped in the case of blue solar cells.<br /><br />The silicon crystals, melted and poured into the vat, are simply allowed to cool to form polycrystalline silicon cells. This forms distinctive grains and edges on the blue solar cells.<br /><br />The way that the polycrystalline cells reflect light, combined with the anti-reflective coating that is applied to them, give these solar panels both their blue appearance as well as a bit of a glimmer.<br /><br /><h2 style="text-align: left;">Advantages between Black and Blue Solar Panels:</h2>Which solar panel is right for you? This decision depends upon a number of factors, including your budget, your space, as well as a few other points, all highlighted below.<div><br /><h1 style="text-align: left;">The Case for Black Solar Panels:</h1><br /><h2 style="text-align: left;">More energy efficient</h2>The uniform alignment of silicon crystals in a monocrystalline panel makes these panels more energy efficient. You typically require fewer black solar panels than polycrystalline solar panels to generate the same amount of energy, making black solar panels the better option when it comes to saving space.<br /><br /></div><div><h2 style="text-align: left;">Absorb more light</h2>In addition to energy efficiency, black panels also absorb more light than blue ones. This means that black panels are capable of absorbing more sun rays, thereby generating more solar power. This leads to more energy being produced for your home or business.</div><div><br /><h2 style="text-align: left;">Better performance in warm weather</h2>Black monocrystalline solar panels perform better in warmer weather. With all solar cells, electricity production falls as the temperature rises. However, this output degradation is less severe in black panels as compared to blue panels.</div><div><br /><h2 style="text-align: left;">Space-saving design</h2>Black solar panels are space-savers. As monocrystalline solar cells are more energy efficient, you require fewer monocrystalline solar cells than polycrystalline solar cells to generate the same amount of energy.</div><div><br /><h2 style="text-align: left;">Bonus features</h2><ol style="text-align: left;"><li>They last longer – with many manufacturers offering a 25-year warranty.</li><li>Black solar panels also tend to perform better in low-light conditions.</li><li>The case for blue solar panels.</li></ol></div><div><br /><h2 style="text-align: left;">More cost-effective:</h2>Polycrystalline cells were previously thought to be inferior to monocrystalline cells because they were slightly less efficient. However, because of the cost-effective method of producing polycrystalline solar cells, they emerged as a dominant technology for the residential solar panels market.</div><div><br /><h2 style="text-align: left;">Less expensive to create and repair:</h2>Because blue solar panels are easier to produce, they are also less expensive. Both their upfront and installation costs are significantly cheaper as compared to black solar panels. They’re also used more commonly, so repairs are quick and easy.</div><div><br /><h2 style="text-align: left;">More eco-friendly:</h2>The blue polycrystalline solar panel cells produce less waste in the manufacturing process as compared to the monocrystalline cells.<br /><br />In manufacturing monocrystalline cells, a significant amount of silicon ends up as waste as silicon wafers are chopped off from all four sides. As polycrystalline cells do not require any individual shaping, very little waste is produced.<br /><br />If you are concerned about your ecological footprint, this might be something you want to consider.<br /><br /></div><div><h2 style="text-align: left;">Black Vs Blue panels: Which is the best for YOU?</h2>The differences between blue and black solar panels on the market today go far beyond their color and aesthetic appeal. In fact, the color of a solar panel indicates the grade of silicon it’s made of.<br /><br />Here’s a quick summary to help you choose the right one for your home!<br /><br /></div><h2 style="text-align: left;">Black – Monocrystalline Solar Panels:</h2><div><ol style="text-align: left;"><li>Characterized by its smooth, black appearance and high-quality silicon.</li><li>Occupy less space and have a longer lifespan.</li><li>Formed through an energy-intensive production process that generates a lot of waste.</li><li>Carry a higher price tag for installers and consumers.</li></ol><br /></div><h2 style="text-align: left;">Blue – Polycrystalline Solar Panels:</h2><div><ol style="text-align: left;"><li>Characterized by visible crystals, a more scattered look, and lower-quality silicon.</li><li>Require slightly more space for producing the same amount of energy as black panels.</li><li>Less complicated production process with minimal waste production.</li><li>More affordable.</li></ol></div></div></div></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9118680865187899256.post-6852785037424735982023-04-02T08:19:00.002-07:002024-02-11T10:16:24.005-08:00The Importance Of An Inverter Connected To a Solar System in Zimbabwe<h1 style="text-align: left;">An essential component within a solar energy setup, an inverter plays a crucial role in the system's functionality. </h1><div>Responsible for transforming the direct current (DC) electricity produced by solar panels into the alternating current (AC) electricity compatible with the standard electrical grid, this device is indispensable for effective energy conversion. </div><div><br /></div><div>For prompt and customized solar quotations, do not hesitate to reach out to us at +263 78 864 2437, +263 78 293 3586, or +263 78 922 2847.</div><div><br /></div><div><h2 style="text-align: left;">With load-shedding becoming a permanent feature in Zimbabwe, more people than ever are talking about solar power generation. </h2><div>Because of this, it is very useful to have a solid understanding of the different components of a solar system and the role they play in the power generation and storage process.<br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjmFZke9kG1foww17bdSkTcDy3F9L-dGBa9zQb5SyfDqjXf3Zj-MtGCMid256WPYiZ3pEldyFBMvQsuP5wtwWqcXQN0omY7i6jTL4yN1CJpRQIUKXxDH6v_yfJThL5RIvz8IidqNm8mLUx371geqodK114WDh5IfwVzXLjprdZm2huGgkQ17hRWqsqPnt4/s1500/synegy2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img alt="The Importance Of An Inverter Connected To a Solar System in Zimbabwe" border="0" data-original-height="1000" data-original-width="1500" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjmFZke9kG1foww17bdSkTcDy3F9L-dGBa9zQb5SyfDqjXf3Zj-MtGCMid256WPYiZ3pEldyFBMvQsuP5wtwWqcXQN0omY7i6jTL4yN1CJpRQIUKXxDH6v_yfJThL5RIvz8IidqNm8mLUx371geqodK114WDh5IfwVzXLjprdZm2huGgkQ17hRWqsqPnt4/s16000/synegy2.jpg" title="The Importance Of An Inverter Connected To a Solar System in Zimbabwe" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">The Importance Of An Inverter Connected To a Solar System in Zimbabwe<br /></td></tr></tbody></table>The inverter is perhaps one of the most important parts of a solar system, as the power captured by the solar panels is only usable once the inverter has performed its role.</div><div><br /></div><h2 style="text-align: left;">Inverters are Critical to Converting DC Power to AC Power in Solar Power Generation:</h2><div>Before we dive into the critical role of solar inverters, let us first discuss the difference between Direct Current (DC) and Alternating Current (AC). <br /><br />DC is a type of current only flowing in one direction. It refers to the flow of electricity obtained from energy storage devices such as battery cells. AC, on the other hand, refers to a current that periodically changes direction from negative to positive or vice versa as it flows. This is the type of current found in building circuitry, i.e. the normal current coming in from mains power that is used from day to day. </div><div><br /></div><div>AC is typically used for this because it transmits much better over long distances, with a lot less energy wastage. Because the energy taken from the cells of a solar panel and from battery storage is in DC, a conversion needs to take place before the energy becomes useful to power devices and appliances. This is where the solar inverter comes in.</div><div><br />DC flows from the solar panels to the inverter, where it is converted to AC or stored as DC in a solar battery. The converted AC power can then be used to power household appliances. <br /><br />As you can see, the inverter is a very critical component of a solar power system.</div><div><br /><h2 style="text-align: left;">The Inverter Converts the Energy Stored in the Battery into Usable AC Power:</h2>Now that we know that solar inverters convert DC to AC, we can go into more depth on how this works. <br /><br />The most basic mechanical inverter has an electromechanical switch that flickers on and off to reverse the direction of the current at high speed. This is what is known as square-wave output, where the current change is instant and there is no gradual shift between the current direction. <br /><br />These instantaneous shifts can be quite hard on electrical systems because normal AC power flows smoothly as the direction changes in a regular pattern called a sine-wave pattern. Because of this, most modern inverters have more sophisticated systems to clean up the current before it is used to power a device. <br /><br />However, a standard conversion process will generally go according to the following steps: <br /><ol style="text-align: left;"><li>Direct current is channelled through the inverter’s internal transformer.</li><li>Direct current runs through two or more transistors (switches)</li><li>The transistors rapidly turn on and off to feed the two different sides of the transformer.</li></ol><br />The transformer changes the output voltage of the current flowing in, while the transistors change the direction of the current. <br /><br />Each manufacturer will have different technology in place for their various solar system inverter models, varying in its sophistication, in order to facilitate this process. It will be important to do your research and speak to your sales consultant about the right technology for your needs and budget, as inverters can vary widely in the quality of their AC power output. Some electronics will need a very high-quality inverter, as anything other than clean sine-wave output could damage complex devices such as IT equipment.</div><div> <br /><h2 style="text-align: left;">The Inverter also Manages the Charge and Discharge of the Battery, for Energy Storage:</h2>If you are using a battery back-up on your solar system, it is important to be aware of the fact that excess power drawn from the solar panels can be stored in the battery system. <br /><br />Not all systems will have this capability, so it will be important to make sure that your inverter is fitted with a rectifier to convert AC power back to DC, where it then can be stored in the battery bank. A charge controller will also play a crucial role in this process. One of its core functions is to control the charge on the battery bank and regulate the voltage being sent to the battery so that it does not overcharge.</div><div> <br /><br />As a battery approaches its rated voltage, the charge controller gradually reduces the current flowing into the battery. Once the battery reaches its capacity, the controller ensures that the charge on the battery is maintained with a trickle charge. Any excess power can then be fed into the grid. <br /><br />In this way, the right inverter used in your solar system can also effectively manage the charge and discharge of your battery bank.</div><div> <br /><h2 style="text-align: left;">The Inverter Ensures the Overall Health of the Solar Power System:</h2>With the popularisation of communication and remote monitoring systems, keeping up with the health of your solar power system is simpler and easier than it has ever been. <br /><br />Since the inverter is the central connection point between all other parts of the solar power system, it is also the central point for communication between the components of the system. Many inverters are equipped with wireless communication systems that can monitor the system as a whole, and also detect any issues that need attention. <br /><br />With a remote monitoring and communication system, you can also keep tabs on the health of your solar panels, the health and state of charge of your battery bank, and a number of other key parameters through a smartphone application, allowing you to manage your solar equipment from any destination with just a tap of your finger. <br /><br />Another thing to note is that higher quality inverters will also be more efficient when converting DC to AC, which also generates less heat and wastes less energy in the process, contributing to the longevity of the inverter and thus the entire solar power system. Many newer models are now equipped with technology that greatly improves the efficiency and safety of the whole system, making a great inverter one of the best investments you can make. <br /><br />When choosing an inverter for your solar system, being equipped with as much knowledge as possible is always beneficial.

Solar Powered Water Systems offer safe water and hope for communities across the world and, more often than not, are a favoured approach for Synergy Solar Zimbabwe. </h2>
<div>
In addition to being beneficial for the environment (especially when compared to systems powered by generators), solar-powered pumps are sustainable for the communities that operate them. With over 200 solar-powered systems installed, <b><a href="https://www.synergysolar.co.zw/" target="_blank">Synergy Solar Zimbabwe</a></b> has experienced a very low failure rate. </div><div><br /></div><div>We have also seen a reduction in overall lifecycle costs when compared to drilled boreholes fitted with hand pumps that are designed for equivalent service areas and lifespans.</div>
<div>
<br />
<h2>
Advantages of Solar-Power Pumping:</h2>
When compared with alternative power sources – including hand pumps, an electrical grid connection, or generator power – solar power is the best overall choice in many situations.<br />
<br />
<b>A majority of the advantages of solar-power water pumping fall into the following four categories:</b></div>
<div>
<b><br /></b>
<b>1. Serve more people. </b>Higher flow and head capacity than hand pumps mean that solar pumping can serve more people in less time significantly reducing queuing times. <br />
<br />
<b>2. Treat, store, and distribute water. </b>Water can be treated and stored in elevated tanks which means that water can be provided where end users are able to access it easily.<b><br /></b></div><div><b><br /></b></div><div><b>3. Provide high levels of service in remote areas. </b>Solar pumps can operate in remote off-grid areas without access to electrical grid power. Additionally, solar pumps provide quantity, accessibility, and reliability that are equal to (if not greater than) traditional AC-powered pumps. <br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgkrMtCfLVfq1KnEKWLn6T3QMFysXAVGc0x1m-_0CG21MqbmwXrzsOe-LoKwAJFu1uHJ6EQksUpxtmcDqov8q_waLrD1mtRXcQ69--IYcFK_i7np9p1QPEfBACYMoJKzwCaLLCE3fqyqsEFMOcvw2QB6OmS_Noj00EDfME2IqZHrV6Dy8D2a6DVA3qq/s6720/pexels-antony-trivet-15197713.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img alt="Solar Powered Water Systems In Zimbabwe (Updated 2023)" border="0" data-original-height="4480" data-original-width="6720" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgkrMtCfLVfq1KnEKWLn6T3QMFysXAVGc0x1m-_0CG21MqbmwXrzsOe-LoKwAJFu1uHJ6EQksUpxtmcDqov8q_waLrD1mtRXcQ69--IYcFK_i7np9p1QPEfBACYMoJKzwCaLLCE3fqyqsEFMOcvw2QB6OmS_Noj00EDfME2IqZHrV6Dy8D2a6DVA3qq/s16000/pexels-antony-trivet-15197713.jpg" title="Solar Powered Water Systems In Zimbabwe (Updated 2023)" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Solar Powered Water Systems In Zimbabwe (Updated 2023)</td></tr></tbody></table></div><div><b>4.

Solar Power is very useful for water supply systems. The most common applications are for household water supplies and agricultural and livestock needs. </h1>
<div>
Of course, using utility-provided water is more economical in most places, but in remote locations, it’s simply not available. The pipes and trenches that would be required to get to the desired site are often prohibitively expensive. And in these types of applications, providing utility electrical power is likely also prohibitively expensive.<br /></div><div><br /></div><div>Solar water pumps can be located anywhere there is available sunshine and a relatively clean water supply. <i>(Dirty water may be filtered, but filters clog up, and the pump flow becomes constricted, so the application quickly becomes maintenance intensive.) </i>The water supply can be a well, creek or river, lake, and so on.<i> (Check on the legal accessibility of your water source before starting your project.)</i><br />
<br />
On a sunny day, the PV-powered pump slowly fills the reservoir.<br />
<br />
In a household application, the storage reservoir is located above the house so that when someone opens a tap, gravity provides the water pressure to the faucets.<br /></div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiUy_DEJcI0xdZFQqLLJnMBmQx96hhQx7ucDC_c9tSGlWR_X_GucuIq5K2PLLxHMPH1q7JlS7ZAJ797ToQuLNuJZiAdl2gs8FwqhpJI1Aa-gTEGa-TPUUjZvOqIYb4O5u4_bwzdod_HdS_NGA7vf7AdF2Jsoj67HYOknHC8V7jWHilhM7BcKL6T2tp7/s1500/mutare%204.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img alt="Solar Powered Water Supply Systems in Zimbabwe" border="0" data-original-height="1000" data-original-width="1500" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiUy_DEJcI0xdZFQqLLJnMBmQx96hhQx7ucDC_c9tSGlWR_X_GucuIq5K2PLLxHMPH1q7JlS7ZAJ797ToQuLNuJZiAdl2gs8FwqhpJI1Aa-gTEGa-TPUUjZvOqIYb4O5u4_bwzdod_HdS_NGA7vf7AdF2Jsoj67HYOknHC8V7jWHilhM7BcKL6T2tp7/s16000/mutare%204.jpg" title="Solar Powered Water Supply Systems in Zimbabwe" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Solar Powered Water Supply Systems in Zimbabwe</td></tr></tbody></table><div>For livestock applications, the reservoir may be nothing more than a ditch or a cattle trough set on the ground.

The difference in vertical height between the top level of the water source and the output end of the pump hose: For agricultural applications, this distance is usually small, on the order of 10 or 20 feet.

There are many whys and wherefores to why homeowners should go solar but improving the environment and cutting energy costs are the most common motives.</h1>
<div>
Today, many people understand and appreciate the fact that solar is a great home efficacy upgrade and are very keen to reduce their carbon footprint while also enhancing their property value.<br />
<br />
So, have you been thinking about the whole outlook of solar energy lately, and pondered if it would be a smart move to install solar panels in your house? Have you seen your neighbours going actively solar and wondered what it could be? Or you are looking for some economical alternative to electricity?<br />
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div>
Your motivations for going solar could be anything, economic, environmental, or personal, this substantial list of solar power benefits will have something for everybody.<br />
<br />
<h2>
What Is Solar Energy?</h2>
Solar originates from the ‘sun’ and solar energy is essentially the energy generated from heat and light radiations from the sun. This energy can be renewed into different energy forms, electricity or electrical energy is the most common one.</div><div><br /></div><div>Solar energy gained popularity ever since it was discovered. The main reason behind its growing popularity is that it’s one of the cheapest and most reliable alternatives to other energy types.</div><div>
<br />
<h2>
How Is Solar Energy Converted Into Electricity?</h2>
To convert solar power into electricity, solar panels are fixed on the roof of a house. These panels absorb the light and heat rays from the sun and store it until it’s converted into electricity by an installed inverter.<br />
<br />
<h2>
Why Should Homeowners Go The Solar Way?</h2>
<br />
<h2>
1. It’s Free</h2>
Well, literally Solar Energy, unlike other natural resources like water, comes completely FREE. No Government or Individual owns the sun’s energy; hence it can never be sold. You can access it anytime and anywhere. </div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhYE68oQ3DIT0sWIwUjm3vNURv1MtYFrco0Jg2pe69eWGLfJkpH_Mk7B-SuYZir_VhppNeE366k0rvapzNTycvXsu6NkXY96dqtDrVnVD2hOeNsYA8THgBcX3gyYZJKWTQyPMbO8G4ElbsR6UYGSacJXdHumZ2cHSbKjFkrXLzrpERqr0JvkPe0pogk/s1500/solar%208.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img alt="Why Should Homeowners In Zimbabwe Go The Solar Way?" border="0" data-original-height="1000" data-original-width="1500" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhYE68oQ3DIT0sWIwUjm3vNURv1MtYFrco0Jg2pe69eWGLfJkpH_Mk7B-SuYZir_VhppNeE366k0rvapzNTycvXsu6NkXY96dqtDrVnVD2hOeNsYA8THgBcX3gyYZJKWTQyPMbO8G4ElbsR6UYGSacJXdHumZ2cHSbKjFkrXLzrpERqr0JvkPe0pogk/s16000/solar%208.jpg" title="Why Should Homeowners In Zimbabwe Go The Solar Way?" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Why Should Homeowners In Zimbabwe Go The Solar Way?</td></tr></tbody></table><div>The only thing you need to keep in mind when designing your home is that the architecture is perfect to absorb all the sun’s goodness.</div><div>
<br />
<h2>
2. Drastically Reduces Or Totally Eliminates Your Electricity Bills</h2>
Electricity costs can make up for a large portion of your monthly expenses, with solar panel systems, you can generate free power for your home for entire 25+ year lifecycle. Also, even if you don’t manage to produce 100 % of the energy you consume, solar definitely helps in reducing a significant amount of your utility bills which means you’ll still save a lot of money.<br />
<!--adsense-->
<br />
<h2>
3. Less Dependence On The National Grid</h2>
With solar energy linked to your house, your dependence on the national grid drops gradually, until the power from it is only used for activities that demand lots of current/power that solar may not supply readily.<br />
<br />
<h2>
4. Great Return On Your Investment</h2>
Don’t consider solar panels to be a matter of huge expense, instead, these are a great investment. They surpass the returns you expect from those mutual funds, stocks, and bonds. The credit going to substantial electricity bill savings.<br />
<br />
<h2>
5. Increase Your Property Value</h2>
Plush interiors, top-notch fittings, and fixtures, beautiful wallpapers, fancy landscaping etc. do you think these things add any value to your property? Of course not, these features rarely add any value to your property price. Multiple studies have confirmed that homes equipped with solar energy systems have higher property values and sell more quickly than non-solar homes.<br />
<br />
<h2>
6. Protect The Environment</h2>
Buildings are responsible for a large amount of carbon emissions and going solar is a great way to reduce your carbon footprint. A typical residential solar panel system eliminates 3-4 tons of carbon emissions each year, this is equivalent to planting over 100 trees yearly.<br />
<br />
<h2>
Why Zimbabwe Needs More Solar?</h2>
Solar energy is becoming more popular all around the world, and Zimbabwe is no exception. With just over 1,000 units per capita annual consumption, Zimbabwe is last among the top 10 developing and developed countries. Our country’s per capita energy consumption is almost a third of the average per capita consumption to grow in the contemporary world and almost one-twelfth of nations like the USA, Canada & China.<br /><br />
These figures prove that our country is going to need a lot more power than it currently produces to sustain its growth, development, and economy. This is going surely going to be one mammoth task. And a lot of it is going to be driven by the microgrid or Rooftop Solar. Hence, rooftop solar is the key solution to modern-day power needs.<br />
<br />
That’s why we say Go Solar, it’s time to design buildings that use solar energy positively. Learn more about<a href="http://gosmartbricks.com/solar-architecture/"> Solar Architecture.</a><br />

Using the information below to guide your decision will make sure you get the right water pump for your needs.<div><br /><b>1. SOLAR WATER PUMP ADVANTAGE – ZERO FUEL COSTS: </b><a href="https://futurepump.com/solar-water-pump-datasheet-sf2/">Solar water pumps</a> are powered by solar panels. Once you have the panel, all the energy you need comes from the sun and is completely free!<br /><br />This is a major advantage over <a href="https://futurepump.com/water-pumps-for-irrigation/">fossil fuel pumps</a> which require you to constantly buy fuel. Fuel can add a significant cost to your farm irrigation.<br /><br />Using free solar energy is also an advantage over <a href="https://futurepump.com/smallholder-irrigation-options/">manual irrigation</a> which takes up a lot of your valuable energy and time (more on this later!).<br /><br /><b>2. SOLAR WATER PUMP DISADVANTAGE – CAN’T PUMP WATER WHEN IT IS DARK: </b>We were just talking about how great solar panels are (and they really are great!), but they do need sunlight to work. If you are wanting to <a href="https://futurepump.com/what-is-solar-irrigation/">irrigate</a> in the early morning or late evening, you may find there is not enough sunlight for your <a href="https://futurepump.com/solar-water-pump-datasheet-sf2/">solar water pump</a> to work.<br /><br />However, with a bit of planning, you can reduce this disadvantage.<br /><br />One of the best things to do is get a <a href="https://futurepump.com/5-cheap-and-effective-ways-to-save-water-on-your-farm/">water tank</a>. During the sunniest parts of the day, use your solar pump to pump water to your tank. You will then have water available via gravity feed whenever you need to irrigate your crops.<br /><br />You could also use a battery with your pump when the sun is not out, but we don’t recommend this as batteries can be expensive and have very short lifetimes.</div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgntFPkUR9PNKieymiqkrTwoJ_abKqSROqVQjzRQc_iue6jLTh9JYcQwHbKL5f0jQhKUA5mXQaLBOnbvEqwz4vCcMJE-KixHEVBqHqUK_xNahYVjXpudGc0U4jHCCLfPfz0uG7p7S9C_nxjXzmU9nN25UMsOMZngfZO8bhxeTiSP2CYPXGbSSH3mWkn/s1500/high-angle-female-showing-ok-sign.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img alt="Advantages and Disadvantages of Solar Water Pumps In Zimbabwe" border="0" data-original-height="1001" data-original-width="1500" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgntFPkUR9PNKieymiqkrTwoJ_abKqSROqVQjzRQc_iue6jLTh9JYcQwHbKL5f0jQhKUA5mXQaLBOnbvEqwz4vCcMJE-KixHEVBqHqUK_xNahYVjXpudGc0U4jHCCLfPfz0uG7p7S9C_nxjXzmU9nN25UMsOMZngfZO8bhxeTiSP2CYPXGbSSH3mWkn/s16000/high-angle-female-showing-ok-sign.jpg" title="Advantages and Disadvantages of Solar Water Pumps In Zimbabwe" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Advantages and Disadvantages of Solar Water Pumps In Zimbabwe</td></tr></tbody></table><div><b>3. SOLAR WATER PUMP ADVANTAGE – LESS LABOUR & MAINTENANCE: </b><a href="https://futurepump.com/solar-water-pump-datasheet-sf2/">Solar water pumps</a> can really reduce the amount of labour and time that is needed to irrigate your crops. Just connect it to your chosen <a href="https://futurepump.com/smallholder-irrigation-options/">irrigation method</a>, turn on your solar pump and it does all the work for you.</div><div><br />Solar pumps also require less labour and maintenance compared to <a href="https://futurepump.com/water-pumps-for-irrigation/">fossil fuel pumps</a>. First, you won’t run out of fuel and need to travel to the petrol station when your crops are desperate for water. Second, solar pumps, especially with good warranty periods, won’t let you down, whereas fossil fuel pumps require a lot of servicing and regular maintenance.<br /><br />This ease of maintenance applies especially to <a href="https://futurepump.com/water-pumps-for-irrigation/">surface solar pumps</a> (ones that are not submerged in water). Because they don’t need to be kept watertight they are repairable. In fact, most maintenance can be done with basic tools on your farm.<br /><br />Just remember to keep your solar panels clean to keep it producing as much energy as possible!</div><div><br /></div><div><b>4. SOLAR WATER PUMP DISADVANTAGE – HIGH UPFRONT COSTS: </b>The upfront cost of <a href="https://futurepump.com/solar-water-pump-datasheet-sf2/">solar water pumps</a> can be a barrier to some farmers, as you need to buy the water pump and panels all at once.<br /><br />However, in the long-term, solar pumps are the cheaper option for <a href="https://futurepump.com/what-is-solar-irrigation/">irrigation</a>. This is because of the advantages already discussed – no ongoing fuel costs, long pump lifetimes and low labour and maintenance costs.</div><div><br /></div><div>It’s a good idea to consider how long you will want your water pump to last and <a href="https://futurepump.com/are-you-missing-a-trick-when-it-comes-to-managing-your-farm/">calculate the cost of fuel and maintenance</a> over this time. You will be surprised to see how quickly what you spend on fuel adds up and, therefore, the savings you will make!<br /><br />On top of that, it is very promising that the cost of solar is continuing to fall, whereas the price of petrol is on the rise. This means that this disadvantage is getting smaller and smaller!<br /><br /></div><div><b>SOLAR WATER PUMP ADVANTAGE – ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY: </b><a href="https://futurepump.com/solar-water-pump-datasheet-sf2/">Solar water pumps</a> are sustainable and use renewable energy. They do not produce harmful pollutants which keep the air and soil on your farm clean.</div><div><br />Compare this to fossil fuel pumps, they create a lot of pollution both with fumes into the air and spills of fuel into your soil.<br /><br />This one is <a href="https://futurepump.com/more-than-solar-pump/">very important to us</a>. Rainfall is becoming more unpredictable and, as the climate changes, agriculture will become more difficult across the tropics. The agricultural sector needs to find new, sustainable practices to help tackle the problem and ways to cope with the changes. <a href="https://futurepump.com/what-is-solar-irrigation/">Solar irrigation</a> is a fantastic option that is available now.<br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhEAsEhB3Mgmvnb2XlcqF0oyn1ydZmbRcKKMxY63lIBGZRt5bnpQzzbcgQWF7zdzJVA9a2JJ87cqLpK9Gr_bJFdKqunKUuf38SDa9FxkEFo9_vu7y8hYkQsUivrgxPYGQ2Lwxeh1DUSFuvvb-z1oHMdpJ8ycXdrtsoydX8skn81qBi0CxG6bASuRZxg/s7200/pexels-antony-trivet-12943128.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img alt="Advantages and Disadvantages of Solar Water Pumps In Zimbabwe" border="0" data-original-height="4800" data-original-width="7200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhEAsEhB3Mgmvnb2XlcqF0oyn1ydZmbRcKKMxY63lIBGZRt5bnpQzzbcgQWF7zdzJVA9a2JJ87cqLpK9Gr_bJFdKqunKUuf38SDa9FxkEFo9_vu7y8hYkQsUivrgxPYGQ2Lwxeh1DUSFuvvb-z1oHMdpJ8ycXdrtsoydX8skn81qBi0CxG6bASuRZxg/s16000/pexels-antony-trivet-12943128.jpg" title="Advantages and Disadvantages of Solar Water Pumps In Zimbabwe" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Advantages and Disadvantages of Solar Water Pumps In Zimbabwe<br /></td></tr></tbody></table>At <a href="http://futurepump.com/">Futurepump</a>, we are experts in the manufacturing of solar water pumps.

The best way to promote solar power, of course, is to get more people to invest in it, and the best way to do that is to subsidize it and drive the net costs down. (Net cost is the amount you pay, out of pocket, for your system; it’s the starting price minus all the subsidies and rebates that you receive.) Subsidies, rebates, and tax breaks are widespread, and they’re becoming more prevalent every day. In some parts of the country, the total discount on a system cost can be more than 50 percent.</i></div></blockquote><div><br />So should you buy now or wait? Although solar contractors inevitably tell you to buy now, the fact is, nobody knows where net costs are going. The only certainty is that utility power is going to become more expensive, and probably much more expensive. But because government incentives change so much, it’s impossible to predict what the net cost of a system is going to do simply because it’s impossible to predict what politicians are going to do. Net prices have come down in the last few years, particularly in light of the ITC (Investment Tax Credit) change. People who bought systems a few years ago have seen their neighbors install identical systems for thousands of dollars less.<br /><br /></div><b>Related Articles:</b><br /><br /><div><b>Article 1.</b> <a href="https://water.polariszw.com/2021/03/top-borehole-drilling-companies-in.html" target="_blank">The Top Borehole Drilling Companies in Zimbabwe</a>.</div><div><b>Article 2.</b> <a href="https://water.polariszw.com/2021/04/recommended-borehole-drilling-companies.html" target="_blank">Recommended Borehole Drilling Companies In Zimbabwe - What You Need To Know!</a></div><br />Ultimately, you’ll have to answer the timing question for yourself.

It is Environment-Friendly: </b>When compared to the various conventional forms of energy sources, a solar power system does not emit any kind of greenhouse gases. It is one of the great ways to cut down on your carbon footprint levels. <br /><br /><b>4. It is Extremely Durable: </b>Once a solar system is installed, it can go on for years without needing any replacement. It offers high resistance against strong winds, rain, and snow. This makes a solar power system durable for years to come. <br /><br /><h2 style="text-align: left;">Types of Solar System:</h2><b>There are broadly 3 types of solar power systems to choose from:</b><br /><br /><b>1. On-Grid Solar Power System/Grid-tied System: </b>An on-grid solar system does not come with batteries and is connected to the national utility grid using either solar inverters or micro-inverters. The electricity that is produced by solar panels is used to run home appliances, and excess electricity is exported to the grid, which further helps in minimizing your electricity bills.</div><div><b><br /></b></div><div><b>2. Off-Grid Solar Power System/Standalone System: </b>An off-grid solar power system comes with an option to connect to the national utility grid depending upon grid availability and hence requires batteries to store the generated electricity. They should be well-built so that they can produce ample power throughout the year and have the sufficient battery capacity to meet your home requirements, even in winters when there is little or no sun.</div><div><br /><b>3. Hybrid Solar Power System: </b>A hybrid solar system refers to the combination of on-grid and off-grid solar systems which includes a hybrid inverter, solar panels, and batteries, making this solar system more versatile in comparison to other solar systems. It can function without any grid, store electricity in batteries, and export excess energy to the grid. <br /><br /><h2 style="text-align: left;">Set Realistic Price Expectations</h2>While purchasing a solar system, it is advisable that you compare the different components and check warranty periods. Research the company that is offering solar installations. You can shop for the solar system and its components from a reputable brand like Luminous. They offer transparent pricing and also help in the installation process. <br /><br /><h2 style="text-align: left;">Solar Panel Certifications</h2>This implies to all solar purchases, but especially to the purchases that could attract a government rebate. The certification is used to indicate the type of testing a solar power system has undergone. For instance, BIS certification, which is similar to the ISI certification for the solar category indicates that the solar power system has undergone testing by an independent laboratory and has met its advertised specifications. <br /><br /><h2 style="text-align: left;">The efficiency of a Solar System</h2>You should always look for inverter efficiency before purchasing a solar system. A solar inverter acts as a mediator between the panels and your appliances that converts DC electricity from solar panels to AC electricity which is suitable for home use.<br /></div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjU8deoFFE95pACh3A81hc7dl0YOQYkze_S2fjtmJtdVfH-BzXG_9_YLRamW1stzBvr5XCxkpZM61fPG6ALvYrHJg5-O1x5EFc20s7akXJWOK0X6SYuqqaK0vXDte_XjqpnI8JWegGNVOQKonT19BCpGT_NS2OzzXd7DshpSbBgDAug3em4_XQHCdWh/s1500/solar%2010.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img alt="Check These 4 Things You Need to Know Before Buying a Solar System!" border="0" data-original-height="1000" data-original-width="1500" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjU8deoFFE95pACh3A81hc7dl0YOQYkze_S2fjtmJtdVfH-BzXG_9_YLRamW1stzBvr5XCxkpZM61fPG6ALvYrHJg5-O1x5EFc20s7akXJWOK0X6SYuqqaK0vXDte_XjqpnI8JWegGNVOQKonT19BCpGT_NS2OzzXd7DshpSbBgDAug3em4_XQHCdWh/s16000/solar%2010.jpg" title="Check These 4 Things You Need to Know Before Buying a Solar System!" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Check These 4 Things You Need to Know Before Buying a Solar System!</td></tr></tbody></table><b></b><div>With people slowly realizing the importance of solar energy, investing in solar power will be a great investment for the future because it will help you in making extra money; it will help in reducing your electricity bills too. </div><div><br /></div><div>Apart from this, it is considered one of the most efficient ways to decrease your carbon footprint on the planet.

Treat, store, and distribute water. </b>Water can be treated and stored in elevated tanks which means that water can be provided where end users are able to access it easily.</div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiNDib-jUZ6l6j_IpKA26-MU6PCs71lhRa7X8dw4L-nUYOBzoy4XAFFKxy3xNo4f7LRbo4yLiYcSmUuA8NmvDFwqg-qL1IBvjmwoClm1ATdMZCgPn9-OAIjvpnhxfanamLPw5RNVvuFfNYPRpIrCFrwq4YXPzTCxiwnP8S5VsWlHqHLSkUsDxUQDjmz/s1500/solar11.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img alt="Solar Powered Water Systems Offer Safe Water and Hope For Zimbabwean Communities!" border="0" data-original-height="1000" data-original-width="1500" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiNDib-jUZ6l6j_IpKA26-MU6PCs71lhRa7X8dw4L-nUYOBzoy4XAFFKxy3xNo4f7LRbo4yLiYcSmUuA8NmvDFwqg-qL1IBvjmwoClm1ATdMZCgPn9-OAIjvpnhxfanamLPw5RNVvuFfNYPRpIrCFrwq4YXPzTCxiwnP8S5VsWlHqHLSkUsDxUQDjmz/s16000/solar11.jpg" title="Solar Powered Water Systems Offer Safe Water and Hope For Zimbabwean Communities!" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Solar Powered Water Systems Offer Safe Water and Hope For Zimbabwean Communities!</td></tr></tbody></table><div><b>3. Provide high levels of service in remote areas. </b>Solar pumps can operate in remote off-grid areas without access to electrical grid power. Additionally, solar pumps provide quantity, accessibility, and reliability that’s equal to (if not greater than) traditional AC powered pumps.</div><div><br /></div><div><b>4. Minimize operation and maintenance costs. </b>Very little capital maintenance is required and most solar pumps continue to function for 10+ years. Plus, solar-powered systems are not difficult to operate and training only takes a few weeks. <br /><br /><h2 style="text-align: left;">Where Are Solar-Power Water Systems Most Effective?</h2>Solar-powered water systems are traditionally associated with rural towns, but continued advances in technology mean that these systems can operate effectively in an ever-increasing variety of climates and locales. <a href="https://watermission.org/research/">Learn more about our solar-powered pumping research.</a> </div><div><br /></div><div>From <a href="https://solar.polariszw.com/p/about.html" target="_blank"><b>ProSolar Solution's</b></a> years of experience in installing and maintaining solar-powered water systems, we’ve found they display their advantages to the fullest in the following environments:<br /><br />1.
