Project Overview
What this project is
The project involved the development of a solar-powered borehole water supply system designed to provide a reliable and sustainable source of water for the benefiting community. Works commenced with geophysical investigation and borehole drilling, followed by the installation of the elevated water storage system and supporting infrastructure.
The completed works included stanchion and water tank installation, fencing and masonry works, water reticulation, and installation of solar panels to power the borehole pumping system. The project provides an energy-efficient water supply solution with reduced dependence on conventional power sources.
