Press release from the Charleston Metro Chamber of Commerce:

Our experience and industry research has demonstrated that solar pumping solutions are both cost-effective and sustainable in the long term, offering technical and environmental advantages to communities.
But it can be challenging to get started. When solar-powered water systems fail, it's primarily due to poor design and installation. This lack of technical expertise has been a barrier in adopting solar powered pumping solutions for many non-governmental organizations (NGOs).
To bridge this gap, Water Mission recently partnered with UNICEF to author the Solar Powered Water Systems Design and Installation Guide. This first-of-its-kind resource provides detailed instruction for fulfilling the internationally recognized technical standards for implementing solar powered water systems in rural contexts. The document has undergone extensive reviews by UNICEF, the Global Solar Water Initiative, IOM, Oxfam, Practica Foundation, and the University of Texas at Austin.
