Description: Solar Pumping for Water Supply : Harnessing Solar Power in Humanitarian and Development Contexts, Hardcover by Kiprono, Asenath W.; Llario, Alberto Ibanez, ISBN 1788530357, ISBN-13 9781788530354, Brand New, Free shipping in the US Solar power for pumping groundwater has a vast potential for improving the sustainability of water supply schemes. However experience also shows that a lack of knowledge, capacity and expertise to design and implement such schemes is holding back their adoption. This book bridges this gap to equip engineers and technicians with the requisite knowledge for design, implementation and operation of sustainable solar powered water Pumping for Water Supply is a state of the art review of solar water pumping technology combined with practical insights, lessons and best practices drawn from experience. It takes the reader step by step through the different phases that comprise a solar water pumping project, namely: assessment, design, purchase of equipment, installation, operation and management. Th also covers the economics of using solar pumping technology, especially when compared to diesel generators and hand pumps. Finally, the social aspects are included, specifically relating to the operation and management of solar pumping systems and the role that beneficiaries, implementers, government and the private sector might play to ensure long-lasting water supply. Th provides links and references to tools, documents and videos to accompany the content of the different reading for solar technical practitioners at NGOs, UN agencies, government offices and private sector, including Global and Regional Technical advisors and Field engineers wanting to understand and know how to design water systems using solar power. A basic knowledge in the field of water supply is assumed, but no previous knowledge of solar photovoltaic technology is Ibez Llario is a Global Solar and Water Advisor with the International Organization for Migration and has 15 years of experience in water systems and solar PV in various locations around the Kiprono is a solar water pumping expert with 12 years’ experience in design and implementation of pumping systems in rural Africa, including solar pumping systems in the private, public and humanitarian sectors.
