Qatar

Qatar, a Gulf country, is rich in oil resources. Oil and gas are the pillars of Qatar's economy. In recent years, in order to realize the diversification of national income and get rid of the dependence on oil, the Qatari government has encouraged and supported the development of agriculture, provided free seeds, chemical fertilizers and agricultural machinery to farmers, called for afforestation and expanded the area of cultivated land. However, there are many restrictions on the development of agriculture and animal husbandry in Qatar, which is located in the tropical desert climate and has little annual precipitation (about 125mm). Fortunately, Qatar is also rich in solar energy resources, which has become a prerequisite for promoting the use of solar pump in Qatar.

Since 2014, Solartech has taken the lead in promoting the original solar borehole pump products and solar agricultural irrigation and other solar water conservancy solutions in Qatar. The following case, completed in April, 2021, is the solar agricultural irrigation project installed in Qatar, which uses Solartech 11kw PB-G2 solar water pumping inverter.

The practical application case shows that the solar irrigation system based on solar pumping system can provide clean energy irrigation facilities for the semi desertification areas without non grid coverage in Qatar, and reduce the demand for fossil fuels such as diesel and power consumption of the State Grid. Solar irrigation system has become an innovative and environment-friendly solar water industry solution for Qatar to develop agricultural economy in conditional areas.
