My Permie Friends,
We are Ukuvuna Urban farming in Johannesburg, South Africa. We are looking to retrofit our
permaculture demonstration site with renewable
energy. Currently, we use an electric
pump to pump
water from a bore hole and would like to switch to a
solar pump. Also, we would like to run part or all of our electricity needs from
solar power. Wind power is also an option but we have concerns that there is not enough wind generated. Does anyone have any insights into what we
should be looking for when it come to
solar pumps or solar energy. Are there any particular technologies/brands that we should look for or avoid?
Thanks,
TyTy
