Do solar powered water pumps work?

Yes! With solar panels you are able to harness the power of the sun in order to power a submersible pump. Solar panels create a significant movement of electrons, and when photons from the sun hit the electron-rich layer on a solar panel you are converting the sun’s rays to electricity that will operate your pump. Solar panels collect photons from sunlight, which produces the Direct Current that provides the energy for the motor to pump water out of its source. Depending on the use case and the water and pressure you need, batteries can also supplement the solar panels to allow for the pumping of water at night and when the sun is down. Solar is an increasingly popular solution for water pumping in rural and remote areas! With more efficient solar panels and highly efficient brushless motors on RPS pump, more water pumping is possible then ever before!
