NOVAGRIC Projects

Photovoltaic solar pumping system for vineyard irrigation

Novagric has carried out an irrigation in vineyard project with photovoltaic installations of clean energy for energy saving in Ciudad Real.

A young producer of grapes for winemaking in a farm with 40 hectares extension has bet for the installation of an irrigation system by solar pumping as a substitute of the old motor-gas irrigation, with which it has reduced the 100% of the costs and its carbon print.

This type of investment is profitable and attractive, against the harsh price increases that electricity and oil are suffering in the market.

A project designed, manufactured, and installed by Novagric to perform a sustainable farming activity and a rapid amortisation.

This facility has an automated system and irrigation remote-control and XILEMA fertilization, which gets updated information and allows him to control remotely.

Sergio has achieved a more homogeneous drip irrigation and greater water efficiency and use of fertilizer with the fertigation equipment. This is because the equipment has been configurated to dose the exact needs of required nutrients and claims to see the plants looking fresher than before.

The farm is divided into 8 sections and each one of them have differentiated irrigation needs, all driven 100% with solar energy. which converted into electric motor moves a sufficient 30 hp to supply a farm of this size.

Sergio has obtained the same productive volumes in this first harvest with solar irrigation. But he has greatly noticed the fuel costs reduction and its energy consumption. in addition to reducing the environmental impact to practically zero.

At Novagric we want to make it very easy for you. That’s why we accompany you from the design of the idea to the start-up of your profitable agriculture project
