- An area can be irrigated by pumping water from a nearby river. Two competing installations are being considered. The MARR is 12% per year and electric power for the pumps costs $0.06 per kWh. Recall that 1 horsepower (hp) equals 0.746 kilowatts. (11.2, 11.3) a. At what level of operation (hours per year) would you be indifferent between the two pumping systems? If the pumping system is expected to operate 2,000 hours per year, which system should be recommended? b. Perform a sensitivity analysis on the efficiency of Pump A. Over what range of pumping efficiency is Pump A preferred to Pump B? Assume 2,000 hours of operation per year, and draw a graph to illustrate your answer.Kwame Nkrumah University of Cape Coast, Legon spent GHS1.8 million to install solar panels atop a parking garage.
