Energy Efficiency Enhancement in Pressurized Irrigation Networks through Optimal Location of Pumps-as-Turbines: A Case Study in Spain

Energy Efficiency Enhancement in Pressurized Irrigation Networks through Optimal Location of Pumps-as-Turbines: A Case Study in Spain

One of the hardest challenges in irrigation systems is to reduce the use of water resources. The goal “more crop per drop“ has fostered the improvement of hydraulic infrastructure by replacing old open channel networks with pressurized systems (e.g., drip and sprinkler irrigation). This has resulted...
