This research aims to determine the efficiency of solar energy usage in aquaponic pumping systems. The study procedures used include a literature evaluation, the production of tools and materials, the building of solar cells on aquaponic systems, testing, data processing, analysis, and report writing. Solar energy as an alternative energy source for aquaponic pumps has proven effective in promoting water circulation in aquaponic systems. The solar panel can provide enough power to meet the load's demands, notably the fish pond's water pump. The efficiency of solar energy use in aquaponic systems can be estimated and checked regularly to ensure peak system function. The combination of polycrystalline solar panels and a boost converter module can improve the efficiency of solar energy use in aquaponic systems. The findings show that using solar energy might be an effective and environmentally friendly way to power an aquaponic pumping system. Solar energy is an efficient source of energy for meeting the pump energy requirements of aquaponics. The study's findings show that using solar energy as an alternative energy source in aquaponic pumps has considerable potential to support the overall sustainability of the aquaponic system. In future development, it is advised to use greater capacity solar cells to deliver energy to the battery to meet the aquaponic pump's needs for 24 hours.
