Commercial Solar Pumps
Get quality pumps
- Solar pumps can be expensive in comparison to its mains electric partner. Quality built pumps are extremely important to ensure longevity on the return on the initial investment. Cheap knock offs are not the way to go here. One must look carefully at the Return on Investment (ROI) when looking for a solar option. Depending on the pump and application a 5-year return is possible.
- We offer a range of Grundfos solar, Mono solar, Franklin solar and Davey Solar pump systems. These systems include either submersible solar pumps or vertical multistage solar pumps. The complete system would include the solar panels, the array structure and inverter.
- Each system must be specifically designed for each application, let us design the right system for you.
Commercial Solar Pumps for Farms, Irrigation & Remote Water Systems in Australia
Commercial solar pumps are transforming how farms, irrigation systems and remote properties access reliable water across Australia. Rising electricity costs and the challenge of powering equipment in off-grid locations have made solar water pumping systems one of the most efficient and sustainable solutions for agricultural, commercial and rural water supply.
At Busselton Pumpshop, we supply high-performance commercial solar pump systems designed specifically for Australian conditions. Whether you need a solar pump for irrigation, livestock watering, bore pumping or remote water supply, our range of solar water pumping solutions provides dependable performance with minimal running costs.
Solar powered pumping systems are ideal for farms, remote stations, mining operations, vineyards and agricultural irrigation projects where grid electricity is unavailable or expensive. By harnessing Australia’s abundant sunlight, these systems deliver reliable water pumping without the ongoing power costs of traditional electric pumps.
Why Solar Water Pumps Are Ideal for Australian Conditions
Australia’s rural and agricultural industries are increasingly adopting solar powered pumping systems due to their efficiency and reliability. Solar pumps use photovoltaic panels to generate electricity during daylight hours, allowing water to be pumped from bores, dams, tanks or rivers without relying on the electrical grid.
For remote properties, solar pumping systems eliminate the need for costly power infrastructure while providing a consistent water supply for irrigation or livestock.
Key advantages include:
- Lower operating costs compared with grid-powered pumps
- Ideal for off-grid farms and remote rural properties
- Reliable water supply for livestock watering and irrigation
- Minimal maintenance requirements
- Sustainable and environmentally friendly water pumping
With modern solar pump controllers and high-efficiency motors, commercial solar pumping systems can deliver impressive flow rates and head pressure suitable for large agricultural operations.
Solar Pumps for Agricultural Irrigation Systems
Irrigation is one of the most common applications for commercial solar pumps in Australia. Farmers and growers use solar pumping systems to move water from bores, dams or storage tanks to irrigation infrastructure such as sprinklers, drip systems and pivot irrigation setups.
Solar irrigation pumps are particularly valuable for:
- Vineyards and horticulture farms
- Broadacre agriculture
- Vegetable and crop irrigation
- Orchard irrigation systems
- Remote agricultural water supply
By running during daylight hours when irrigation demand is typically highest, solar powered pumps provide a highly efficient solution for maintaining consistent water delivery to crops.
Solar pumping systems can also be integrated with storage tanks so water pumped during the day is stored for irrigation later when required.
Solar Bore Pumps for Livestock Watering
Livestock producers across Australia rely on solar bore pumps to supply water to cattle and sheep in remote paddocks and grazing areas. Solar bore pumping systems can extract groundwater and distribute it to troughs and tanks across large properties without the need for grid electricity.
Typical applications include:
- Cattle station water supply
- Sheep grazing properties
- Remote livestock watering points
- Bore water extraction
- Water transfer between tanks and storage systems
Solar bore pumps are designed to operate reliably in harsh Australian environments and can deliver water from deep bores while maintaining excellent energy efficiency.
Commercial Solar Pump Systems for Off-Grid Properties
Many remote properties and rural facilities across Australia operate completely off-grid. For these sites, solar pumping systems provide a dependable water supply without the need for diesel generators or expensive electrical infrastructure.
Common commercial applications include:
- Remote accommodation and lodges
- Mining and exploration camps
- Rural water supply infrastructure
- Agricultural processing facilities
- Off-grid homes and properties
With the right solar panel configuration and pump sizing, these systems can deliver continuous water supply while dramatically reducing operational costs.

Learn about our Pumpshop
A solar pump relies on solar panels to provide the electrical energy that runs a motor, which in turn drives the pump. Because it taps directly into sunlight, the system is cleaner and cheaper for places that lack reliable grid electricity.
At Busselton Pump Shop, we carry a full lineup, from submersible bore models to surface units and solar booster pumps. Our inventory features proven brands such as Davey, Grundfos and Onga so customers can buy with confidence.
Solar pumps fit remote farms, daily stock watering, backyard garden irrigation, off-grid houses, village water tanks and small horticulture projects that need steady water on sunny days.
Clear, direct sun lets the pump run at full speed, while overcast weather cuts output. Many setups include a small battery or use a hybrid design that automatically switches to grid power on dull days to keep water flowing.
Absolutely. Modern controllers let the system draw power from solar first, then swap to batteries, the mains or even a generator when sunshine wanes, ensuring reliable service all day.
At Busselton Pumpshop we will walk you through your water depth, daily demand, and local conditions so you leave with the ideal pump size and model.
Not at all, once installed, sunlight is free, and the few moving parts wear out slowly, so costs stay low. Just give the panels and filters a quick clean now and then.
When set up properly and serviced regularly, a quality unit can outlast ten years. Most panels carry twenty to twenty-five years of warranty, locking in long-term savings.
Absolutely; our trained crew handles installation, routine servicing, and repairs. We also keep a full stock of spare parts so your system stays efficient.
