Abstract: As we see there is enough wind and solar energy globally to satisfy as much as humanity’s energy requirements. vertical axis wind turbines (VAWT) may as efficient as current horizontal axis system, might be practical and significantly cheaper to build and maintain than horizontal axis wind turbine (HAWT). They have other original advantages, like they are always facing the wind, which might make them a significant player in our daily routine for low cost, cleaner renewable sources of lifting water. The growing popularity of solar wind pumps in many rural areas, these areas typically have no access to electricity or shortage of electricity, which creates a problem when it comes to irrigation and watering livestock. VAWT’s might even critical in mitigating grid interconnect stability and reliability issue currently facing electricity producers and pump the water from suppliers. Additionally cheap VAWT’s may provide an alternative to the rain forest destruction for the growing of bio-fuel crops. In this project we attempt to design and fabricate a Savonius water pumping Vertical Axis Wind Turbine. And also we make our model hybrid- solar and wind mill operated water pump. The solar energy gained by the solar panel and convert that electrical energy into mechanical energy which causes to rotate the shaft which is connected to crank plate. The circular motion of crank plate uses to lift the water as it converted in up and down motion using crank mechanism.
