Concept

Kandi CMI project (Community Micro Irrigation) is a unique type of irrigation project where solar PV energy is being used for pumping water from a canal to irrigate area under command with micro irrigation either by sprinkler or drip irrigation. This is going to be the largest of its type. Canal water is lifted with solar pumps. HDPE pipes are being used for rising main PVC pipes for distribution network for 1642 Acres of command area.

Components Executed By Jain Irrigation

2) R.C.C. Sumps at three pumping locations

3) Pump Houses at three Canal Pump Stations

4) HDPE Rising Main 180 mm to 450 mm total length 8160 Rmt.

5) Solar Pumping System with Solar PV panels for 560 KW.


B) Stage II

1) Solar Pumping stations at pond intermediate stage at 11 locations

2) Sumps and pump room at these pump stations at 11 locations

3) PVC pipe distribution network 359152 Rmt. of 63 mm to 180 mm diameter.

4) Solar Pumping System with Solar PV panels for 320 KW

5) Operation, control & monitoring of the system through IrriCare automation solution.
