Resumen
La transición hacia fuentes de energía más limpias y sostenibles se ha convertido en una prioridad en diversos sectores, especialmente en la agricultura, donde los motores de combustión interna desempeñan un papel importante en las operaciones de riego. Estos motores, aunque funcionales y ampliamente utilizados, generan emisiones significativas de gases de efecto invernadero y dependen de combustibles fósiles, contribuyendo así al calentamiento global y al deterioro ambiental. En este contexto, el reemplazo de estos motores por sistemas eléctricos conectados a redes de distribución con transformadores ofrece una solución innovadora y ambientalmente responsable. Este artículo analiza los aspectos técnicos y económicos de dicha transición, destacando los beneficios que incluyen una notable reducción de las emisiones de carbono, menores costos operativos a largo plazo y una disminución de la contaminación sonora. Asimismo, se abordan los desafíos asociados, como la necesidad de instalar una infraestructura eléctrica adecuada, garantizar la estabilidad del suministro energético en áreas rurales y adaptar los sistemas de riego a los nuevos motores. Este enfoque no solo promueve la ecoeficiencia, sino que también fortalece el compromiso de la agricultura con el desarrollo sostenible.
