Agricultural Solar & Tubewell Solutions in Punjab

Agricultural solar systems power irrigation tubewells directly from solar panels, eliminating WAPDA electricity costs entirely. The system is sized based on your tubewell motor capacity (typically 7.5–30HP). On sunny days, the pump runs on solar; a hybrid system can add battery backup or grid connection for cloudy days.

A solar tubewell system for a 10HP motor typically costs PKR 8–15 lakh depending on panel brand and system type. The payback period is usually 2–4 years given the high cost of agricultural electricity in Pakistan.

Standard on-grid agricultural systems only run during daylight. For night or cloudy-day operation, a hybrid system with battery storage or net metering can provide continuous power. SolarLink's engineers will help you select the best solution for your farming needs.

A VFD (Variable Frequency Drive) solar pump system uses a drive to control motor speed based on available solar power — making it more efficient in partially cloudy conditions compared to standard direct-coupled systems. SolarLink recommends VFD-based systems for most agricultural applications.

Agricultural consumers connected to the grid are eligible for net metering under NEPRA regulations. SolarLink can install a net-metered agricultural system so that any surplus power generated during low-irrigation periods earns bill credits.

A solar tubewell system in Pakistan typically costs between PKR 400,000 and PKR 1,200,000 depending on pump size and depth. The system pays for itself within 2–3 years by eliminating diesel and electricity costs.

Solar tubewells run during daylight hours (6–10 hours per day depending on season). For 24-hour operation, a battery backup or hybrid system is required. Most farmers find daytime operation sufficient for irrigation needs.

Most agricultural tubewells in Punjab require a 7.5HP to 15HP motor, which needs a 7kW to 15kW solar system. Solarlink provides free site surveys to recommend the exact system size for your tubewell and crop requirements.

Yes. Solar panels still generate 15–25% of peak power on cloudy days. Punjab averages over 300 sunny days per year, making solar highly reliable for agricultural use throughout most crop seasons.
