Solar-Powered Irrigation System Market 2035: Regional Expansion & Top Industry Players

The solar
powered irrigation system market was valued at USD 3.6 billion in 2025 and
is projected to grow at an 11% CAGR from 2026 to 2035. Growing adoption of
sustainable agriculture, rising diesel and electricity costs, water scarcity,
and government-supported solar-pump programs are supporting market growth.

Solar-powered irrigation systems combine photovoltaic
generation, pumping equipment, controllers, and irrigation infrastructure to
provide agricultural water supply. Their value proposition is strengthened when
solar pumping is paired with drip or sprinkler irrigation, enabling farmers to
improve energy access, reduce fuel dependence, and use water more efficiently.

Submersible pumps accounted for 61.6% of the market in 2025.
Their use is concentrated in borewell-dependent agricultural districts where
groundwater access requires deep-lift pumping.

The 3.1–10 HP power-rating segment held 54.1% of the market
in 2025. This range aligns with the operating requirements of
smallholder-to-commercial farms and is widely supported by solar-pump suppliers
using MPPT controllers.

Asia Pacific led the market with USD 2.24 billion in revenue
in 2025, representing 62.1% of global revenue. India’s PM-KUSUM program,
domestic supplier base, and large agricultural-pumping demand support regional
leadership.

Grundfos Holding A/S led the market with an estimated 10%
share in 2025. Its broad distribution footprint, premium positioning, SQFlex
solar-pump range, and digital pump-management capabilities support remote-water
and higher-service applications.

Some of the major players in this market are Jain Irrigation
Systems Ltd., Netafim Ltd., Shakti Pumps (India) Ltd., Hefei JNTech Renewable
Energy Co., Ltd., LORENTZ, C.R.I. Pumps, Wilo SE, DAB Pumps, SunCulture,
Futurepump, Rain Bird, Tata Power Solar, EBARA Brasil, and Zhejiang Rison
Pumping Tech.
