ABSTRACT: The demand for renewable energy sources has increased significantly in recent years, and solar energy has emerged as a promising solution to meet these requirements. Solar panels, which convert sunlight into electricity, play a crucial role in harnessing solar energy. However, the efficiency of solar panels heavily depends on their orientation relative to the sun. To address this limitation, sun tracking systems have been developed to optimize the positioning of solar panels throughout the day.
This abstract presents an overview of a sun tracking solar panel system designed to enhance energy efficiency by accurately tracking the sun's position in the sky. The proposed system utilizes advanced sensors and control mechanisms to dynamically adjust the orientation of solar panels to maximize solar exposure.
KEYWORDS: Solar energy, PV panel, latitude, Passive, servo motor.
