<strong>Case</strong> <strong>Study</strong><br />
<strong>Solar</strong> <strong>Water</strong> <strong>Pumping</strong> <strong>System</strong><br />
Project: Borehole Equipping with Lorentz <strong>Water</strong><br />
Pump.<br />
Location: Mabuye Primary School.<br />
Application: Domestic consumption,Irrigation,<br />
Livestock.<br />
<strong>Solar</strong> pumps are powered by an array of solar panels.They are designed to operate on DC power from the solar modules.<br />

Advantages<br />
1.Low operating cost: One of the most important advantages is negligible operating cost of the pump,since there is no fuel required for the pump .<br />
SYSTEMS (E.A.) LTD<br />
2.Low Maintenance: A well designed solar system requires little maintenance beyond cleaning of panels .<strong>Powerpoint</strong> <strong>System</strong>s <strong>EA</strong> Ltd provides post-installation service through<br />
trained technicians for every cluster.<br />
3.Harmonious with Nature: Another important advantage is that it gives maximum water output when it is most needed i.e hot and dry months.<br />
Mabuye Primary School is located approximately 350km from Nairobi.They required an<br />
Ecofriendly solution for their perenial water shortage problem and thus approched<br />
<strong>Powerpoint</strong> <strong>System</strong>s <strong>EA</strong> Ltd to design and install a <strong>Solar</strong><strong>Water</strong> pump system to pump water<br />
from their borehole.<br />
