Solar Water Pumps for Sustainable Farming in Sri Lanka | Deep Tec

Empowering Rural Sri Lanka with Solar Water Pumps

In many rural areas of Sri Lanka, agriculture is still limited by access to reliable water and energy. Farmers struggle with high diesel costs, inconsistent electricity, and outdated irrigation systems. At Deep Tec, we’re helping change that one farm at a time by providing solar water pump solutions that support sustainable farming.

Why Solar Water Pumps?

Solar water pumps harness energy from the sun to draw water from wells, tanks, or surface sources. For farmers in off-grid or underserved regions, this offers a dependable and eco-friendly alternative to fuel-powered systems. These pumps reduce long-term costs and enable irrigation even during power outages or fuel shortages making farming more efficient, affordable, and sustainable.

According to the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA), solar-powered irrigation can increase agricultural productivity and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
