Solar Pumps: A Solution to Improving Water Security in Mountainous Region of Uttarakhand, India
Journal Title: International Journal of engineering Research and Applications - Year 2018, Vol 8, Issue 6
Abstract
Water is an essential part for all living creatures. There is no water in other planets so there is no life. But irony is when someone lives in that area which is surrounded by worlds one of the biggest water system but has to walk up and down in hills for fetching water. In this study, a water pumping system is introduced for combating this situation. Deployment of solar PV based water pumping is used because it is pollutant free and the price of clean energy sources are decreasing day be day. Solar system is best alternative to age old conventional systems which were costly and they emits greenhouse gases. This paper consists of a proposed design and calculation of a efficient solar based water pumping system for drinking and daily use. The region opted for this study and analysis is 30.2830N Latitude and 79.0160E Longitude in Mid Himalayan range of Uttarakhand ,India. The designing of PV based water pumping system is done in such a way that it can capable of supplying water in a village which has a population of 100 people. All these analysis are done while keeping in view the probable growth of population and reliable performance of our system for that supply. These measures will open the door a lot and will circulate economy of that region to a degree.
