Summary
With the abundance of sunshine in Ghana, solar pumps offer small farmers a promising alternative - if they can afford the initial investment. To begin addressing this issue, IWMI joined forces with Pumptech, a distributor of solar pumps manufactured by the German company LORENTZ.
The pumps are designed for off-grid water pumping and several models are specifically aimed at smallholders.
