We installed our first Solar Lift Station in 2015. We developed solar powered lift stations to provide an option where grid power is either unavailable or too expensive to access.

Our system is solar direct meaning no batteries are used. Batteries are expensive, maintenance intensive, and not compatible with most VFD type drives for running pump motors. 

Solar power runs the pump by day and an optional manual or automatic standby generator can power the pump by night. Typically, solar pumping by day keeps up just fine. We encourage oversizing the solar pump from a normal grid tied pump since the system doesn't run at night.

We have many of these solar lift stations operating in Michigan, Indiana, Ontario, and Nebraska. Call us today for a list of project references to learn how our systems have helped provide reliable water pumping solutions.
