PV Irrigation System for Omani Farmers
The falaj is a traditional system for directing underground
water to the surface by gravity. It has been used for domestic water
supply and irrigation in Oman for centuries. Traditional irrigation
is via channels and surface flooding. The objective of this pilot
project is to collect one farmer’s share of water in a 50m3 ground
reservoir and use solar energy and modern irrigation methods to
irrigate an area of 0.3 hectare on a daily basis. The 1.5 kW solar
generator serves a 1,3kW Grundfos-SQflex-pump. Mayor benefits
include are improved irrigation efficiency, improved crop yields and reduced
labour. The project planning, installation and implementation was a
joint approach of the NGO Earthwatch, Omani authorities and Phaesun
Middle East. Please find pictures of the installation and the PV
irrigation system on our
Facebook-page here.
