A bioplateau is an artificial reservoir used for wastewater treatment. The pumping unit is a key component of the bioplateau, ensuring water circulation and feeding the aerobic bacteria that purify the water.
To ensure the operation of the pumping unit that supplies water to the bioplateau in 2000, in Rzhyshchiv, Kyiv region, a backup solar system was installed. The system uses a 4.5 kW inverter and was designed to ensure uninterrupted pump operation, even in the event of a power outage.
Equipment description:
- Inverter: converts direct current from solar panels into alternating current used by the pump.
- Solar panels: generate electricity from sunlight.
- Batteries: store energy produced by solar panels for use at night or during power outages.
- Charge controller: regulates the charging of batteries to prevent overcharging or deep discharge.

A backup solar system for a bioplateau pond pumping unit is an efficient and eco-friendly solution that ensures uninterrupted pump operation, saves money, and does not pollute the environment.
Important: This article describes a specific system that was installed in 2000. Solar energy technologies have advanced significantly since then, so modern systems may have different characteristics.
