This project with a cumulative capacity of 459 kWp was undertaken for the Government of Sindh in 2016. This is an extremely impact-based project implemented in two phases. Phase 1 of the project was based on the installation of 5 solar water pumps, each having a 25HP capacity, which was completed in 2017. The water from these pumps is being fed into a 5 km channel that is used by the local communities for agriculture and other purposes. Phase 2 of the project with 10 solar water pumps of similar capacity and size will be completed in 2019.
