Abstract
This work presents a study of a photovoltaic solar pumping system for the irrigation of a plot of 6,500 m2 in the village of ADARAOUA. The purpose of this study is to bring a contribution to the population of village in their market gardening through the use of photovoltaic (PV) solar energy. Using this energy, it is possible to pump water to a certain depth from wells or boreholes by a solar pump. The system set up comprises four main parts, namely a PV generator with a peak power (Pc) of 1,235.47 Wp, a solar pump of the GRUNDFOS SQFLEX type with a power of 1.4 kW, a control box (FAMATEL) and a well 15 m deep. On the economic level, although the realization of the system requires a significant cost of 3,974,600 F, one can retain as advantages a very low maintenance cost, and a satisfactory profitability of the cultures. From a technical point of view, the solar PV pumping system is very reliable, efficient and autonomous. It is applicable for any need and in any area of the country (Niger) thanks to the solar deposit which is very important, the average value of which can exceed 7 kWh/m2/d. These are the advantages that make it one of the most suitable systems for irrigation in rural areas from a technical and economic point of view.
