From bore well pumping to crop protection to selling power back to the grid — we cover every solar need on your farm.
Solar Water Pumps
Replace diesel pumps with solar-powered water pumps for bore wells, open wells, and canal irrigation. Available in 3HP to 10HP — sized for your land and depth. Zero fuel cost, runs on sunshine, and PM KUSUM subsidy covers ₹1–2 lakh of the cost.
- 3HP to 10HP systems for all bore well depths
- Ideal for 2–20 acres of irrigated farmland
- PM KUSUM subsidy: Central 30% + State share
- Runs 6–8 hours/day from sunlight alone
- Can be paired with a battery for limited night use
- Saves ₹40,000–₹80,000/year in diesel costs
Solar Fencing

Our agriculture solar team serves farmers across all districts of Telangana — from Hyderabad outskirts to the most remote rural mandals.
What is PM KUSUM?
PM KUSUM (Pradhan Mantri Kisan Urja Suraksha evam Utthaan Mahabhiyan) is a central government scheme to provide farmers with reliable, affordable solar-powered irrigation. It has three components:
Component B — off-grid solar pumps to replace diesel pumps. Central government pays 30% of cost, state government contributes another 30%, and the farmer pays only 40% — often eligible for soft loans at subsidised rates.
Sri Ishaan Solar assists Telangana farmers with the complete PM KUSUM application — from land documents to DISCOM coordination to final commissioning.
- 1 Farmer applies through state agriculture department or TSNPDCL
- 2 Solar installer (us) is empanelled and surveys the site
- 3 Installation completed within 30–60 days of approval
- 4 Subsidy disbursed directly — farmer pays only net cost
Important: PM KUSUM eligibility requires a valid patta (land ownership certificate), an existing or proposed bore well, and the farmer must not already have a grid-powered pump connection. Our team verifies eligibility before proceeding.
Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions from Telangana farmers about agriculture solar.
Is a solar pump better than a diesel pump for farming in Telangana?
Yes, for most Telangana farmers a solar pump is far better than diesel. A diesel pump costs ₹40,000–₹80,000 per year in fuel. A solar pump has zero fuel cost after installation. With PM KUSUM subsidy, the payback period is typically 2–4 years, and after that you irrigate for free for 20+ years. There is also no power cut risk and no engine maintenance.
Which districts in Telangana are eligible for PM KUSUM solar pump subsidy?
PM KUSUM is available across all 33 Telangana districts — Nizamabad, Karimnagar, Warangal, Khammam, Nalgonda, Mahbubnagar, Adilabad, Sangareddy, and all others. Eligibility is based on land ownership and bore well status, not district. Contact us for district-specific application support — we handle the paperwork end to end.
Can I sell farm solar power back to the grid in Telangana?
Yes. Farmhouse on-grid solar is eligible for net metering under TSNPDCL. Excess units generated during the day are exported to the grid and credited to your electricity account — effectively running your meter backwards. This is ideal for farm buildings with an existing DISCOM connection. Sri Ishaan Solar handles the full net metering application with TSNPDCL at no extra charge.
What size solar pump do I need for my bore well?
The correct size depends on your bore well depth, pipe diameter, and daily water requirement. As a rough guide: 3HP pumps work for depths up to 100 feet with moderate flow, 5HP for 100–200 feet, and 7.5–10HP for deeper bores or high-volume irrigation needs such as paddy or sugarcane. Our team does a free site assessment to recommend the exact capacity before any purchase.
How long does a farm solar installation take in Telangana?
A solar pump installation typically takes 2–3 days after site survey and component delivery. Solar fencing for 1–5 acres takes 3–5 days. A farmhouse rooftop solar system (3–5 kW) takes 1–2 days for physical installation and another 15–30 days for TSNPDCL net metering approval. We coordinate all logistics — you do not need to visit any government office.
