  • Abstract
    In locations where electricity is unavailable, other means are necessary to pump water for consumption. One option is a photovoltaic (PV) pumping system. Advantages of PV pumping systems include low operating cost, unattended operation, low maintenance, easy installation, and long life. These are all important in remote locations where electricity may be unavailable.So far, in the development of this research, the focus has been to estimate the available radiation at a particular location on the earth’s surface and then analyzed the characteristics of a photovoltaic generator and a photovoltaic network. The purpose of this research is to examine all the necessary steps and key components needed to design and build a pump using photovoltaic system.
