Abstract :
A solar powered photovoltaic water pumping system has been installed and field tested at James Cook University of North Queensland, Australia. The results of the experiment are discussed based on field measurements and computer modeling of the various system components in order to investigate the efficiency of each component and the performance of the entire system.
