Power Your Future with Clean Energy

Borehole Solarization

Borehole Solar Water Pump

Borehole solar water pump systems are a sustainable and affordable way to access clean water for your home, farm, or business. 

Replace electricity/diesel pumps with clean solar pumping and enjoy a dependable water supply at near-zero running cost.

Problem Statement

Many farms, ranches, schools, and communities rely on electricity/diesel-powered borehole pumps that are expensive to run and maintain. 

Fuel prices rise, supply can be unreliable, and mechanical breakdowns often occur at the worst possible time. 

In dry seasons, limited pump runtimes due to fuel costs…

…meaning crops, livestock, and people may not get enough water. 

Noise and emissions from diesel engines affect nearby homes and the environment. 

For arid and semi-arid locations, the high cost of operating diesel pumps can make boreholes unsustainable over the long term.

Solution

Inara Africa converts your borehole to solar-powered submersible pumps, controllers, and solar panels matched to your borehole depth and yield. 

During the day, solar energy runs the pump directly…

…filling your storage tanks or watering systems without any fuel cost. 

We design systems for;

  1. Small-scale community water points, 

  2. Large farms, 

  3. Water vendors

  4. Livestock watering, 

  5. Institutional water supply, etc. 

Our solutions provide predictable, low-cost water delivery, helping you plan irrigation, sustain livestock, and supply communities more reliably.

How Borehole Solarization Saves You Money

Many farmers and households in Kenya rely on borehole solar water pump solutions to ensure a consistent water supply while reducing electricity costs.

Why Choose Us?

Proper Borehole Assessment and Sizing

We start with a technical assessment of your borehole depth, static and dynamic water levels, and required daily output. This ensures we select the right pump and solar array to deliver reliable performance.

High-Quality, Durable Components

Our systems use proven pumps, controllers, and panels suitable for continuous operation in rural and harsh environments. This reduces the risk of frequent failures and costly replacements.

Flexible Designs for Different Applications

Whether you’re irrigating crops, supplying livestock, or providing water for a school or community, we design the system around your specific usage needs and storage strategy.

Fuel-Free Operation and Lower Lifetime Cost

Once installed, your solarized borehole operates without diesel, drastically lowering operating costs. Over time, the savings easily surpass the initial investment, improving your cash flow and resilience.

Steps to Work Together

Borehole Data Collection

We gather existing reports or perform a field assessment to understand borehole depth, yield, and current pumping setup.

System Design and Costing

Based on your daily water needs and borehole characteristics, we design a solar pumping solution and provide a clear cost and output estimate.

Installation and Commissioning

Our team installs the solar array, pump, and controls, then tests the system thoroughly to confirm expected water flow and performance.

Training and Support

We train your team on basic operation and checks, and offer maintenance support to keep your solarized borehole running efficiently for the long term.

FAQ

Can you convert my existing diesel borehole pump to solar?
In some cases, we can integrate with existing infrastructure, but often we recommend replacing diesel-only pumps with solar-compatible models. We’ll advise based on your specific system.
Will the solar pump work during cloudy weather?
Yes, the pump will typically still operate at reduced capacity in lower light. We can design storage options to ensure you have enough water to cover cloudy days.
How deep can a solar pump work?
Modern solar pumps can work effectively in deep boreholes. During our assessment, we match pump capacity and panel size to your borehole depth and yield requirements.
Can I still use a generator or grid as backup?
Yes. We can design hybrid systems allowing generator or grid backup in case of extended bad weather or unusual demand.
What maintenance does a solarized borehole require?
The solar components and pumps need periodic inspections, cleaning, and simple checks. Compared to diesel systems, maintenance is generally less intensive and less costly.
