How to make irrigation systems smart and sustainable

In a world that is increasingly eco-conscious and focused on sustainability, irrigation management also plays a part in environmental change. Whereas in the past it was necessary to manage irrigation manually, carrying out frequent maintenance operations in the field with the risk of wasting water without even realising it, today there are sustainable irrigation techniques that optimise the resources involved. Thanks to smarter systems, it is possible to combine irrigation with respect for the environment.

Let’s take a look at some of the characteristics of sustainable irrigation.

Remote management

With simple smart connectivity via Bluetooth 5.0 or Wi-Fi, you can monitor the entire irrigation system from your mobile phone, tablet or PC. We can say goodbye to manually switching the controller on and off, to directly changing the water flow or even just to monitoring on site to make sure that everything is working properly.

Remote irrigation control allows you to programme your system anywhere and anytime, optimising water consumption and avoiding the waste caused by inefficient, manually managed irrigation systems.

Green power supply

Intelligent irrigation management also requires efficient power supply.

To keep the system working and avoid waste, smart irrigation must rely on tools that make it independent from manual intervention. An innovative solution is the use of rechargeable lithium batteries, which guarantee constant operation and reduce the costs and environmental risks associated with replacing alkaline batteries.

In this way, smart irrigation not only reduces the environmental impact, but also offers a long-term solution that is reliable over time.

Energy autonomy

To keep the controller’s lithium batteries charged, you can use renewable energy, converted by devices such as solar panels or hydroelectric turbines. The solar panel captures the sun’s energy during the day, while the electric turbine uses the movement of the water already circulating in the system to generate energy.

In this way, irrigation will be intelligent and efficient, as well as sustainable.
