“…A comparative performance analysis between several WPS and including various storage solutions was made in [35], where a DPVWPS was compared with schemes that included lead-acid batteries, supercapacitors, and a hybrid solution combining battery and supercapacitors. An experimental study was performed using a 20 W pk PV module, a 24 Wh battery (12 V and 2 Ah), a 4.2 Wh and 12 V supercapacitor bank, as well as a 12 V and 14.4 W dc motor.…”

This work presents the conversion of a photovoltaic water pumping system (PVWPS) to its corresponding battery-based solution, while maintaining the components of the PVWPS facility and adding the power converter needed to manage the operation of a lithium-ion battery. A complete analysis of the direct PVWPS is performed based on the values obtained by the monitoring system developed for the installation. The efficiencies and performance ratios of the various elements of the facility are calculated, as well as other relevant factors (such as irradiance thresholds). The dependence of some variables on the solar resource is analyzed to model the system. A similar study is carried out in the battery-based solution and a comparative analysis of the two modes of operation is then performed to find which aspects could be improved in the battery-based solution to increase the pumping time and total daily pumped volume. The results presented demonstrate the benefits of including a battery (reduction in start/stop cycles and improved performance on cloudy days). Aspects that can be improved to make the battery-based solution more efficient and achieve better results are suggested.INDEX TERMS Photovoltaic water pumping systems, lithium batteries, battery-based pumping, water pumping, stand-alone photovoltaic system, sustainable development goals.

“…34 The obtained results confirm that the amount of water pumped is increased by 33% in case of energy storage. In another work, a 14.4 W centrifugal pump is tested using 20 Wp PV panel, 12 V, 210 F super-capacitor, and 12 V, 2 Ah battery for four different configurations 35 for a dynamic head of 2 and 3 m, respectively. The PV and super-capacitor arrangement resulted in maximum system efficiency of 23% for a dynamic head of 2 m while PV and battery configuration produce maximum system efficiency of 16% for a dynamic head of 3 m. Reports confirm that compared to conventional grids and diesel generators, the cost of water pumped using battery based SPVWPS for irrigation and sprinkling systems is cheaper.…”

Burning fossil fuel like coal, diesel, and so on, for electricity generation is environmentally hazardous and cause increased CO 2 emissions worldwide. To meet the ever-growing energy demand, solar energy remains top and considered to be most promising one that grabbed global attention recently, especially, in the areas of rural electrification and water pumping. Moreover, the solar photovoltaic (PV) system is advantageous and highly preferred. Thus, this paper attempts to review various components of solar-powered water-pumping systems, its configuration, characteristics, and performance. Also, comparison of water-pumping system with and without maximum power point tracking (MPPT), motor and pumps selection based on water flow rate, optimal converter selection, and effective controller performance is studied. Furthermore, PV pumps behavioral study at various geographical locations is also made. Critical analysis on PV water pumping with limitation and suggestions is also highlighted. Hence, it is envisaged that the data presented in this review paper will be useful to the researchers in the selection of suitable PV techniques, pumps, motors, MPPT, and controllers for the effective design, control, and better performance of solar water-pumping system.

Providing basic human needs like water and household electricity is a challenging task at remote locations. To support both needs, this study presents the development of a multipurpose battery-assisted solar water pumping system (SWPS). The system consists of only two power electronics converter, viz., bidirectional DC-DC converter, and three-phase voltage source inverter (VSI). The detailed control system is presented, where the DC-DC converter controls the battery power and also ensures the maximum utilisation of stand-alone solar photovoltaic source. In pumping operation, the VSI is operated as a variable frequency motor drive and rotates an induction motor (IM) at the rated power to deliver rated water discharge. In power supply operation, the household electrical load is connected between the mid-point of DC-bus and the star point of an IM winding. The VSI, along with motor inductance, realises the single-phase inverter, which is controlled with synchronous sine pulse-width modulation to deliver single-phase output. The motor does not rotate during this operation and the motor winding acts as a current filter. This multipurpose SWPS assures rated water discharge during the irrigation period and availability of electrical power in the remaining period. A prototype is developed and extensive experiments are performed to investigate system performances.
