@pmbrandvold@techtoots.com because it's an appliance, it probably needs 120 volts to run, so this is actually "dangerous if you're a careless idiot" territory. But to assess what you'll need, a simple kill-a-watt power meter is a good place to start. Wire up a plug to the pump, make sure it's plumbed up so it has water to circulate (could just stay in the dishwasher with water for testing), and let it rip. Check for how many amps and watts it pulls. You'll need a battery and a 120 volt inverter that can support that much power draw for as long as you'll need to run it, and a solar panel and charge controller to charge that battery
