Can you add solar to an existing well powered by the power company?

I wanted to see if I could add solar panels and batteries to my existing well so I can switch to solar at night when I'm a sleep to help fill my pond. Have it turn off the next morning so it could charge again and have the well go back to my power company.

The last owner couldn't tell me much about the well and I couldn't find anything on file.

I think the pump is between 175' and 200' deep and the pvc I can see is 1-1/4" and the low/high pressure is 40-75lbs. The pump is about 14 years old. Pictures are the only thing I can add to know the well system currently installed.
