Solar-pumping solution

Eco Solar can install solar solutions for borehole pumping to reduce diesel costs, consumption and spillage. A solar borehole is typically more reliable than a generator driven system due to the fact that is has fewer moving parts and does not require routine services. It will automatically start when the sun rises and stops when the sun sets, with no human intervention required.


Grid-tied solution

For farms that are connected to the grid, Eco Solar can install large grid-tied systems, both ground and roof-mounted. It is recommended that the client joins the Roof Top Solar Scheme, feeding surplus energy back to the grid and off-setting your energy bill from BPC. The typical pay-back is around 5 years subject to a full system assessment.


Off-grid solution

Large scale off-grid farming is becoming the norm in Southern Africa. An off-grid solar system provides you with a constant and reliable renewable energy source. Eco Solar typically designs these systems in combination with generator support during peak consumption and cloudy days. The design factors in load requirements and the client’s budget. The system can be designed in such a way that it is possible to scale-up should the load-requirements increase
