Solar Pump System for Stock Watering
Stock water pumping and solar go hand in hand!  In summer, when you need the most water is when your pump operates at it fullest output.  These systems are batteryless--it's more cost-effective to pump water than store electricity--and you get more water with these types of systems than if you utilized batteries.  A typical system for a 100 ft. deep well would entail the following:

2 - 60 to 64 Watt Solar Modules
(20 to 25 year output warranty)
1 - Zomeworks Tracker for above modules, tracks the sun
from morning til evening, 10 year warranty.
1 - Shurflo Sub Pump, 9300 Series, averages 100 gallons per  hour in full sun, one year warranty.
1 - Solarjack PC10-30B Pump Controller, optimizes voltage  and pump output while protecting pump; one year
warranty
120 ft. of 10/2 Submersible Pump Wire
30 ft. of Sensor Wire for Float Switch
1 - Float Switch, shuts off pump in up position, placed in
stock tank.
1 - Silicon Oxide Varistor (surge protector), helps protect  against over-voltage conditions, lightning strikes.
1 - Heat Shrink Tubing Kit

MUNDANE FACTS OF LIFE--like mailing costs are a real factor in a business's operating expense.  It's so time consuming just to put together a flier like this!  So, we're trying to do regular (well, every month or two) e-mails to folks who are interested in efficient appliances or renewable energy technologies.  It saves paper, labor and postage.  So if you're on line, let us add you to our EMAIL LIST.  Sometimes we have a great deal to offer, or just some good RE news to pass on.  We do not sell or share our list with anyone.  Drop us a line at  info@oasismontana.com

OF INTEREST TO MONTANANS….
January 10th, 2001, saw the first meeting in Helena, MT, of the Montana Renewable Energy Association (MREA)--a group of  solar electric and thermal vendors, engineers, installers, environmentalists, and utility reps with three main goals:  1) to expand the use of renewable energy technologies in Montana  2) to affect public policy in favor of these technologies and 3) to educate and inform the residents of Montana the benefits and uses of renewable energy.

Several committees were formed, each with their specific goals:  policy (affecting legislation), education, marketing, and fundraising.  Tax breaks, grants and other financial incentives, demonstration systems, and seminars were among the topics discussed.

Those of you in Montana may wish to see what systems are in your area by checking out http://www.montanagreenpower.com - and also some Northwest energy news is available on this site.
