From Arid Land to Abundant Flow: Lumens Doubles Water Supply and Efficiency for Rural Settlement

Problem

Imagine a community struggling with limited water access, relying on a single borehole pump and facing challenges in effectively distributing the precious resource. This was the reality for one rural settlement, where insufficient water flow hampered daily routines and hindered growth.

Solution

Lumens Energy arrived, dedicated to empowering the community with a comprehensive water solution:

  • Doubled Pumping Power: Installed a robust 1.5HP borehole pump, doubling the existing water withdrawal capacity and significantly increasing the overall yield for the settlement.
  • Sustainable Energy Source: Equipped the system with 6 x 460W JA Solar panels, harnessing clean and reliable solar power for efficient water pumping.
  • Extended Reach: Meticulously plumbed water from the deep well to two tanks, each 350 meters away, ensuring convenient access for the community.
  • Backflow Prevention: Strategically placed multiple non-return valves throughout the system, eliminating any risk of backflow contamination.
  • Dual Power Backup: Provided the flexibility to utilize both generator and solar power for water pumping, ensuring uninterrupted water flow even during low sunlight periods.

Result

This project is a testament to sustainable solutions and community empowerment:

  • Increased Water Availability: Doubled water yield allows everyone in the settlement to enjoy better access to this vital resource.
  • Reduced Reliance on Generators: Solar power provides a clean and cost-effective alternative for daily water pumping.
  • Enhanced Efficiency: Optimized plumbing ensures minimal water loss and maximizes distribution across the community.
  • Improved Quality of Life: Increased water access fosters better sanitation, hygiene, and agricultural productivity.

Beyond Water Access: This project goes beyond providing water; it represents Lumens Energy’s commitment to empowering communities and fostering a sustainable future. By collaborating with rural settlements, we strive to bring lasting improvements and brighter possibilities, one drop at a time.
