The document serves as a training manual focused on the implementation of solar PV water pumping systems, providing detailed technical guidance on system design, installation, operation, and maintenance for rural water supply projects in areas with limited access to electricity. It covers essential topics such as the identification and management of water sources, various pumping technologies, water treatment methods, and financial analysis, ensuring the system's long-term viability, efficiency, and sustainability in delivering clean water through solar energy.

This report describes the assessment of training needs for Solar PV in Nepal. The assessment is based on a survey of private companies involved in solar PV implementation throughout Nepal to gain first-hand insights into the challenges faced by solar companies and their specific capacity development needs. The report includes the training courses identified and their envisioned modalities.

The document provides an overview of solar photovoltaic (PV) systems and their applications in rural areas with unreliable electricity. It discusses the components of these systems, analyzes electrical demand and load, and outlines the advantages and limitations of off-grid solar PV, offering practical guidance on load calculations and different types of solar modules to support the implementation of solar irrigation pumps.
