The use of technology in agriculture is advancing at a lightning pace. Improvements are always being made to farming technology, agricultural structures, and manufacturing infrastructure. Many farming tasks can be solved using photovoltaic (PV) technology. Water pumping for crops and cattle is only one example of a distant agricultural necessity that might be met by PV solutions. There are two primary parts to every solar-powered water pumping system. This set up consists of solar panels and pumps. The solar cell is the smallest component of a photovoltaic panel. Each solar cell consists of two or more layers of semiconductor material that have been properly prepared to generate direct current (DC) energy when exposed to light. This piece will describe the operation of a PMSM-driven solar-powered water pumping system.
