Renewable Energies and Irrigation
Abstract
Renewable energies are positioned as a good solution to fossil fuel depletion. For remote sites, where the grid is not available, renewable energies provide an excellent solution, since the energy sources are abundant (namely, solar radiation and wind). Thus, in this chapter, a state of the art of renewable energies use for water pumping is detailed. Hence, the situation of using renewable energies worldwide, namely, photovoltaic, thermal, wind, wave, hydraulic, and biomass energies, and the different photovoltaic installation architectures is first studied. Then, the renewable energies use for irrigation, tomatoes irrigation specifications and factors, namely, the soil, the climate, and the ...
