The National Irrigation Administration's Region II office reported the inauguration of a solar-powered pump irrigation project in Barangay Tabbac, Buguey. The inauguration took place on 9 October 2026, and the agency says the project was completed and formally accepted.
Service and handover
The briefing reports a 15-hectare service area and 18 farmers. It also covered operation and maintenance, an important part of turning a solar pumping installation into a dependable irrigation service rather than treating equipment delivery as the endpoint.
For future projects, the reported handover focus is a reminder to define responsibilities for controls, seasonal operation, routine inspection, spare parts and user training. The figures describe this project and should not be copied into another site design without a hydraulic assessment.
Aquasolar did not participate in this external project. Its relevance here is as a public reference for commissioning, acceptance and post-installation support in solar irrigation.
