Experimental Study of a Photovoltaic Direct Current Water Pumping System for Irrigation in Rural-Isolated Region of Arequipa, Peru

Abstract: In the present experimental study, a photovoltaic (PV)-powered system in continuous current (4 kW) for the pumping of water in an isolated, rural agricultural zone in Arequipa-Peru was analyzed. A meteorological station was installed in the studied zone, measuring solar radiation, temperature, relative humidity, and wind speed. The electrical and hydraulic parameters of the solar-pumping system (i.e., electric current, voltage, mass flow, and hydraulic pressure) were measured in order to evaluate the efficienc… Show more

“…In addition, a PVWPS for irrigation in rural China allowed to validate the models detailed in [20] and [21]. Data on PVWPS for irrigation installed in Egypt [22], Saudi Arabia [23,24] and Peru [25] were also acquired. Nevertheless, to the best knowledge of the authors, no measurements have been provided on PVWPS for domestic water access in rural villages and none of the studied PVWPS was located in sub-Saharan Africa, despite it being one of the regions with the lowest grid coverage [1] and access to improved water supply [2] and having a high solar energy potential [26].…”
