<br/><br/> The objective of this study was to derive the hydraulic performance indicators, which are, discharge, pressure and efficiency for solar surface pump operated by solar energy in lifting water. The study included different levels of the factors affecting the pump performance that are tilt angle, solar cells area and cleaning degree of solar cells. Cost analysis has been carried out for estimating the required unit water cost and comparing it with its values for both of electrical and diesel pumps.
