Our bore pumps are all solar powered inline immersion pumps fitted to boreholes under older still standing windmills.
They're off grid, and can be swapped out if the PV panels or immersion pumps fail.
Ideally you should be pumping into tanks in any case, for the buffer, and those tanks can be placed on a hill to gravity feed .. or pump with a motor.
Here's a typical setup, sans old windmill: https://youtu.be/iZAMm_S3GNQ?t=383 https://youtu.be/iZAMm_S3GNQ?t=383
