Irrigation and pumping
Compare pump power and working hours with solar production. Operational changes must remain compatible with agricultural and hydraulic requirements.

Solar energy for farming, irrigation and pumping
Energy planning should follow the agricultural season. We assess irrigation, pumping, refrigeration and processing against the months and hours when the farm operates.
Size for the season, not an annual average.
Demand may be concentrated in a few months. Irrigation schedules, water availability and cold-storage requirements affect how solar generation can be used. The assessment also considers what happens outside the main season.
Refrigeration and processing
Identify seasonal and night-time loads and equipment that cannot stop.
Installation and storage
Assess connection conditions, electrical distances and existing systems without assuming that batteries solve every constraint.
What to send us
- Bills, consumption data and farming season
- Pump, refrigeration and processing schedules and power
- Location, grid connection and existing solar
Before you start
Can solar energy support night-time irrigation?
Photovoltaic panels generate during daylight. Night-time consumption requires grid energy or appropriately sized storage; the alternatives should be compared economically.
Does seasonal demand rule out solar?
Not necessarily. Compare demand and generation throughout the year, including low-activity periods and potential surplus.
Agriculture
