Revolutionizing Pivot Irrigation with Solar Energy
Pivot Master converts existing centre pivot irrigation systems to run on solar energy — without replacing your infrastructure and without batteries for core operation. The system provides intelligent synchronisation between the pump station and the pivot, ensuring that water delivery matches available solar irradiance in real time. Whether configured as a fully off-grid solar system or a hybrid installation blending solar with grid or generator power, Pivot Master delivers reliable irrigation performance engineered for agricultural conditions across Africa and beyond.
Product Range
Choose the Pivot Master edition engineered for your agricultural operation — all editions convert your existing centre pivot to solar
