What Our Clients Say
Hear from farmers and agricultural professionals who trust Tulima Solar for their sustainable energy solutions
"Opio Tonny, the owner of Otobai Investment Co. Ltd Tree Nursery in Lira City, Northern Uganda, found a solution to his irrigation challenges with a solar water pump from Tulima Solar. Referred by another satisfied entrepreneur, he invested in the technology to replace a manual watering can. The solar pump provided a consistent and efficient water supply, reducing physical labor for Opio and his workers. This improved irrigation led to more effective watering and supported the expansion of his one-acre tree nursery. Opio credits Tulima Solar's technology and support for empowering his business growth and helping him combat issues like climate change, poverty, and unemployment. He now considers them a key partner in his business's future."
"Rebecca Wakesa, a nursery and vegetable grower in Nashibiswa Village, Mbale, aimed to improve her one-acre garden. She sought to reduce high costs, save energy, and increase her crop yield and earnings. Following a sales officer's guidance, she installed a solar water pump from Tulima Solar. This new irrigation system drastically cut her previous expenses, allowing her to invest the savings back into her business and expand her crop variety. Rebecca highly recommends the solar water pump to other farmers, highlighting its energy efficiency and cost-effectiveness as key benefits."
