Abstract: The article delves into the increasing adoption of solar-powered groundwater irrigation in irrigation in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), examining both the prospects and challenges linked to this expanding practice. It discusses the three broad approaches to solar-powered irrigation in LMICs, including stand-alone pumps, grid-connected small solar panels, and large solar power projects.
