Why is it important to use high quality products for agricultural solar power systems?

In the harsh environment of Darwin, temperatures consistently change from humidity to dry season, making quality a top priority for designing a system. At Adelaide River, a solar bore pump has been installed to supply water to the paddock area, paired with a Grundfos pump for top-of-the-range quality. This ensures that cattle are cared for and provided with water every day, without Doug having to worry about days without water.

Not only does this bring greenery to the place, but it also leads to massive savings for Doug. All the water is solar-powered, meaning that he doesn't have to pay for it and his bills have dropped by up to 2/3. Agriculture plays a big part in their work, and they aim to help farmers who are doing it tough by providing solar borehole pumps, solar air conditioners, and solar power.

So obviously again, when we're talking about Darwin we really look at quality because Darwin's harsh environment can go from 38, 40 degrees, the humidity and then it can go to the dry season where we get very cool mornings. So the temperature is consistently changing in Darwin, I mean, it's quite harsh. Today, we're at Adelaide River, we've got a solar bore pump we've installed recently to go around 34 meters deep to supply water to the paddock area. Yeah, so Darwin's temperature, obviously, or Darwin's environment, I guess is quite harsh. It changes from humidity from the dry season to the wet season. So basically, when we design a system, our number one priority is to design it around quality. So top of the range quality, and we've paired it today with a Grundfos pump. So both two really quality components, which basically give Doug peace of mind that he's going to have this for a long time without having any issues. Look, massive savings and it's not just about the savings is about basically the care for his cattle. He knows that his cattle are getting water every day. He doesn't have to worry about days and days without getting water and also it brings a bit of greenery to the place as well, which is great for Doug.

That means extra cheap water for me. That no pay's going to it, that's all solar. And while the sun is shining, we got free water. Well, my bills probably dropped by, I'd say up to 2/3, like power bill, so, yeah, I'm happy with that.
