OUR PRODUCTS.
Solar-powered Fishing Lights.
Simusolar offers a solar-powered LED light that is as bright as a kerosene lamp, easier to use, and eliminates fuel costs.
Solar-powered lights increase income.
- No fuel costs – when fishers use kerosene lights, one-third of their income is spent on fuel and care for the lanterns.
- Work under all weather conditions – kerosene lights cannot be used in inclement weather.
- No maintenance – kerosene lanterns need to be refueled and attended to all night long.
Solar-powered Pumps.
Simusolar developed proprietary technology that allows salespeople to custom design each pump system on-site without the need for site visits by technical experts and engineers.
We offer a range of solar-water pumps so that farmers can access and utilize nearby deep or surface waters to irrigate their crops regardless of the timing of the rains and during dry seasons.
Simusolar pumps bring more than water to the fields, they enable farmers to:
- Get more harvests per year (because rain is not a constraint).
- Increase yield per acre.
- Farm more land (due to time savings).
- Increase farmer incomes by being able to harvest and sell during the dry season when prices are highest.
- Reduce operating costs (because they are no longer reliant on diesel-fueled pumps).
