Greening of Annapurna: Water from the sun

Getting water for drinking, irrigation and domestic use remains a daily battle for many communities in the mid-hill and Tarai regions of Nepal. To address this problem, ICIMOD this week started testing an award-winning portable solar water pumping system in its Khumaltar headquarter.

The equipment includes a 1HP (750 watt) solar pump with 12 solar panels (see pics), or a 2HP pump with 24 panels mounted on trolley with bicycle wheels.

The whole system costs only Rs 160,000 and can be moved to draw water from rivers, ponds and wells that are up to 50 feet deep.

The solar pump was designed by Pune-based Atom Solar and won the best design prize at a competition organised by Greenpeace in 2013.There are many small-holder farmers in Nepal’s Tarai region who can potentially benefit from this cost-effective technology. With an average daily sunshine of seven hours throughout the year, Nepal has a high potential for generating solar power.

Says ICIMOD director David Molden: "We hope the pumps will serve mountain communities who often suffer from acute water shortage because their habitations lie above river valleys."
