Introduction to Photovoltaic








Solar (photovoltaic or PV) modules produce DC
electricity directly from sunlight with no moving
parts.
Solar modules have been around for over 50 years
and in mass production since 1979.
The reliability of PV is such that 20 to 25 year
power warranties are typical, with life
expectancies beyond 30 years.

Solar pumps are very cost-effective for remote
applications (where utility interconnect costs
more than $5000).



Off-grid homes and cabins
Livestock watering: pond and stream
protection, rotational grazing, remote
pasturing
Aquaculture: aeration, circulation, and de-
icing.
Irrigation: best for small scale applications

SOLAR WATER PUMPING
MANOJ KUMAR SAHU EI200117103
There are 2 ways of using solar
power to pump water:















1. Directly connecting the solar panel to the pump, or
2. Charging a battery with the solar panel, and then using the
battery to run the pump.
Both of these systems have drawbacks:
1. If the pump is directly powered by the solar panel, then water
can only be pumped when the sun is shining.
2. Charging the battery first, and then using that to run the pump
is less efficient, plus two batteries would be needed so that one
could be charging while the other runs the pump, making the
system more expensive.

Disadvantage

Potentially high initial system cost
Decreased water production in cloudy
weather
Water storage and/ or battery needed for
providing full time water
Must have good sun exposure between 9 am
and 3 pm

Solar energy is there where you need it. You do
not need to truck it to your pasture. When the sun is
shining brightly, making the cattle more thirsty, the
PV system is also pumping more water for them.
When it is overcast and rainy, the PV system will not
pump as much water, but the cattle will not need as
much drinking water during cloudy weather.
Therefore, using solar generated electricity to pump
water for livestock can be cost-effective and
reliable.But the system needed a lot to be developed
& widely accepted.
