Start by checking your pump''s voltage (typically 12V, 24V, or 48V DC) and wattage rating. Then, match the panel output to the pump''s input requirements. It''s best to choose slightly larger solar panels than calculated
Learn More
To run a water pump on solar, multiply the pump''s power by 1.5 to calculate the total solar panel wattage needed. For example, a 1000W pump requires at least 1500W of solar panels.

Choosing the right size pump depends on a variety of factors such as the desired water flow rate, head height (the distance the water needs to be lifted), and the available solar power.
Learn More
The number of solar panels will depend on the wattage that a particular pump will need to operate, the phase type of the pump, and the age of the pump. You need to ensure that there is sufficient wattage from the solar
