Project Idea
Utilize renewable energy to operate a water pump using solar power. This project harnesses solar energy through a photovoltaic panel to run a DC water pump, making it ideal for irrigation, garden automation, or remote water access where electricity is limited. It's an excellent introduction to green energy, basic electronics, and sustainable solutions, especially for students, farmers, and hobbyists.
Project Description
This project features a solar-powered water pumping system driven by a small DC motor. A solar panel captures sunlight and converts it into electricity, which powers the pump via a rechargeable battery system for backup use. The system is designed for low-voltage DC operation, using a charge controller to regulate power from the panel to the battery. The simplicity of the setup makes it portable, efficient, and easy to implement in remote or off-grid areas. All components are connected using jumper wires and a basic circuit setup on a board or within a waterproof enclosure.
