The need for increasing agriculture productivity is driving technological developments in the global solar pumps market. Automating these pumps to carry out operations, such as pumping water for irrigation and livestock and fish farming, and ensure domestic water supply is gaining importance worldwide.

According to the report, developing countries such as China, India, and Bangladesh are taking measures to spread awareness about the benefits of renewable energy such as solar pumps for irrigation purposes. For instance, the Indian government is providing grants and subsidies to the country's farmers to purchase solar water pumping systems. In January 2016, the government announced an investment of $11 billion to set up solar pumps across the country. Such initiatives not only facilitate in reducing the use of conventional energy sources but also help in increasing the market penetration of solar pumps in the developing countries.
