The use of renewable energy sources continues to increase as they provide clean energy in every system. It has also been widely used in water pump systems. With its solar water pumps, it provides opportunities to the points where water and electricity cannot reach. Solar water pump systems operated with AC and DC motors are preferred. In this study, a solar water pump system was modeled in Matlab/ Simulink using a Brushless (BLDC) motor. In the system, bidirectional charge control is used for battery storage and a hybrid system modeling has been carried out. This study evaluates the dynamic behavior of the solar water pump system in the case of weak and high solar radiation. It recommends using BLDC motor for full efficiency water pump and bidirectional charge control for battery storage.
