Project Location:
Rio Negro, Uruguay
Project Introduction:
Uruguay is one of the largest animal husbandry countries in the world. Beef is Uruguay's largest export product and is exported to all around the world. In animal husbandry, a key point is the drinking water supplying of the livestock.
Solution:
In June 2021, Solartech 3kw AC solar pumping system was successfully installed in Rio Negro, Uruguay. The system adopts the Solartech PB series AC solar submersible water pump SPB43K0070, equipped with 14pcs solar panels, with average daily water flow of 70 cubic meters under 60 meters water head. The solar powered water pumping system can provide sufficient drinking water for more than 10,000 cows.
Social Benefits:
Solartech solar pumping system, with patented solar pumping technology, can operate automatically without manual operation. In the long-term run, the operation and maintenance cost of solar water pump is much lower than that of diesel or electric water pump. Moreover, solar water pumps are more reliable and environmentally friendly. Powered by solar energy, zero pollution to the environment. It promotes the sustainable development of local animal husbandry.
