2. Solar-powered pump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar-powered_pump

   A windpump replaced by a solar-powered pump at a water hole in the Augrabies Falls National Park. [Notes 1] This solar water pump up to 3.7 kW is useful for farmers.Solar-powered pumps run on electricity generated by photovoltaic (PV) panels or the radiated thermal energy available from collected sunlight as opposed to grid electricity- or diesel-run water pumps.

3. Solar-powered Stirling engine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar-powered_Stirling_engine

   NASA patented a type of solar-powered Stirling engine on August 3, 1976. It used solar energy to pump water from a river, lake, or stream. [1] The purpose of this apparatus is to “provide a low-cost, low-technology pump having particular utility in irrigation systems employed in underdeveloped arid regions of the earth…[using] the basic principles of the Stirling heat engine“.

   3. Electricity Savings: Solar-powered pumps decrease electricity consumption, which helps lower the farmers' expenses. 4. Source of Additional Income: Farmers can earn extra income by selling surplus solar energy back to the grid. 5. Green Energy: Through this scheme, farmers contribute to environmental protection by utilizing green energy. 6.

5. Solar-assisted heat pump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar-assisted_heat_pump

   The operating conditions' optimization of this system is the main challenge, because there are two opposing trends of the performance of the two sub-systems: by way of example, decreasing the evaporation temperature of the working fluid increases the thermal efficiency of the solar panel but decreases the performance of the heat pump, and consequently the COP.

6. Renewable energy in Africa - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Renewable_energy_in_Africa

   A solar powered water pump and holding system was installed in Kayrati, Chad, in 2004 as compensation for land lost to oil development. [54] This system utilizes a standard well pump powered by a photovoltaic panel array. The pumped water is stored in a water tower, providing the pressure needed to deliver water to homes in the area.

7. Photovoltaic power station - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photovoltaic_power_station

   Solar power plants are developed to deliver merchant electricity into the grid as an alternative to other renewable, fossil or nuclear generating stations. [96] The plant owner is an electricity generator. Most solar power plants today are owned by independent power producers (IPP's), [97] though some are held by investor-or community-owned ...
