Solar Water Pumping Systems
High-performance solar water pumping solutions for agricultural irrigation, community boreholes, and livestock. Eliminate costly diesel generator fuel and KPLC pumping tariffs.

Engineering Excellence & How We Deliver This Service in Kenya
Water is essential for agricultural profitability and residential comfort in Kenya. However, operating borehole pumps using grid electricity or diesel generators creates immense monthly overheads and vulnerability to fuel price hikes. Synowatt’s solar water pumping systems convert clean Kenyan sunlight directly into continuous water flow.
Our systems utilize high-efficiency Solar VFD (Variable Frequency Drive) inverters featuring advanced Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT). This technology allows the pump to start early in the morning, adapt smoothly to passing clouds, and maximize liters pumped per day without batteries.
We design solutions for all borehole depths and discharge heads, providing turn-key installations across Machakos, Kiambu, Kajiado, Nakuru, Laikipia, and nationwide.
