Solar pumping system is where a pump running on electricity generated by solar panels from collected sunlight as opposed to grid electricity or diesel run water pumps. The operation of solar powered pumps is more economical mainly due to the lower operation and maintenance costs and has less environmental impact than pumps powered by an engine. Solar pumps are useful where grid electricity is unavailable and alternative sources such as wind do not provide sufficient energy.
