Abstract
This paper analyzes the performance of irrigation pump units, with a special focus on their energy efficiency. As energy has become an important resource in agricultural practice, it is important to optimize energy use in irrigation systems where water is scarce. The study includes both a technical and an energy audit of existing pump units. Key performance indicators include. This paper analyzes the performance of irrigation pump units, with a special focus on their energy efficiency. As energy has become an important resource in agricultural practice, especially in water-scarce areas, it is important to optimize energy use in irrigation systems. The study includes a technical assessment and an energy audit of existing pump units. Key performance indicators such as specific energy consumption (SEC), overall efficiency, and operating patterns are analyzed. The findings reveal inefficiencies of current systems and suggest potential improvements through intelligent control and monitoring systems.
