Overview

Extended Irrigation with Battery Storage

The Pivot Master System – ESS Assisted is designed for irrigation applications requiring extended operating hours or greater energy flexibility. The system incorporates battery storage while maintaining solar power as the primary energy source.

This system is built on the Pivot Master Technology Architecture. Learn more about how pump–pivot synchronisation and seamless solar blending operate.

When sufficient solar energy is available, the system operates on solar. Batteries supplement solar power to extend runtime when required, and grid or generator power can still be blended in if available. This ensures stable pump pressure and consistent irrigation performance across varying operating conditions.

If no grid or battery power is available, the system automatically reverts to Solar Only operation, starting and stopping based on available solar energy.

Irrigation Design & Agronomic Considerations

Pivot irrigation systems are engineered to deliver specific irrigation depths per revolution based on crop requirements, soil characteristics, and climatic conditions. Achieving these targets consistently can be challenging when irrigation windows are limited to daytime solar hours alone.

By incorporating battery storage, the ESS Assisted system provides additional flexibility, allowing irrigation to continue beyond peak solar periods where required. Battery capacity is sized according to the client's needs and can be expanded as operational requirements change.

This configuration is well suited to farms with variable irrigation demand, extended irrigation schedules, or phased energy upgrade strategies.

Expandable Energy Storage

Battery capacity can be scaled up as your farm's irrigation requirements evolve, providing an energy solution that grows with your operation.

Key Benefits

Ultimate Energy Flexibility

Expandable battery storage combined with solar-first operation delivers unmatched flexibility for demanding irrigation schedules.

Extended Irrigation Windows

Battery storage enables irrigation beyond peak solar hours, providing flexibility for optimal crop water management.

Solar-First Operation

Solar energy remains the primary power source, with batteries supplementing only when needed for maximum efficiency.

Seamless Grid Integration

Automatic blending with grid or generator power where available ensures uninterrupted irrigation performance.

Expandable Capacity

Battery storage can be increased as operational requirements grow, providing a scalable energy solution.

Improved Reliability

Multiple energy sources ensure consistent pump pressure and irrigation quality under all conditions.

Operational Flexibility

Ideal for farms with variable irrigation demand, extended schedules, or phased energy upgrade strategies.

Important Note

The Pivot Master System does not control pivot speed. Pivot speed remains controlled by the pivot controller. The system's role is to ensure correct pump–pivot synchronisation and maintain proper irrigation pressure.
