Water supply system for high elevated community, source is 500m below

Published by

I am looking for any  low cost technology for designing  a water supply scheme for an elevated location, where  water source is about 500m down, Stream source, discharge is sufficient but thinking  we have to install pumping (many stages).

Electric cable is around 700m far from the community (Marginalized)  for installation of  Transformer and Cable connection cost may be high.

Source is North face , shadow zone, not sure can use solar power for pumping. There is not any alternative source for upper part for gravitational flow ( this is the top elevation) , there is 150 HH.

Any one have experience of Designing  such WSS? 

With best regards,

Well, much information is not there  such as pipe sizing and flow per second, but with that I would suggest using a solar-driven 500 hp pump.  The only company I know with that is a pre-packaged system is Worldwater & Solar Power (NJ). - Scott Sklar, President, The Stella Group, Ltd, and Adjunct Prof at The George Washington University (DC)

Colleagues.

Sorry to be blunt, but this is not a technically difficult problem to resolve.

The point you all seem to be missing, is that there is a huge capital cost involved to resolve the problem. 

Where does the money come from to fund ANY of the solutions proposed?

Lots of solutions, but how are you to fund them?
