In the heart of Bungoma County, at St. Elizabeth Secondary School in Bitobo, a remarkable change has taken place. Thanks to Benax Solar & Borehole Solution, a solar pumping system has been installed to provide a reliable and cost-effective water solution for the school and its neighboring community.
Our team at Benax Solar & Borehole Solution worked diligently to set up a solar-powered borehole pumping system. This system harnesses the power of the sun to pump water, ensuring a sustainable and eco-friendly source of clean water.
Key Components
Solar Power - We installed nine 200W 24vdc crystalline modules, totaling 1,800W of solar power. These panels efficiently capture sunlight and convert it into the energy needed to run the water pumping system.
Water Pump - The heart of the system is the 3SR2/41 1.1kw water pump, complete with a 3-phase sub-motor. This powerful pump can supply 1,800 liters of water per hour, meeting the needs of the school community.
The impact of this solar pumping system is significant. The school and the neighboring community now have access to clean drinking water without incurring high costs. The solar-powered solution not only provides a sustainable water source but also reduces the reliance on traditional energy sources, making it an environmentally friendly choice.
The installation of the solar pumping system was efficiently completed in just two working days. This quick turnaround ensures that the school and the community could start benefiting from clean water at the earliest opportunity.
