In this paper, the authors deal with a microcontroller based solar panel tracking system. Solar tracking enables more energy to be generated because the solar panel is always able to maintain a ...

Solar energy is becoming increasingly attractive as we grapple with global climate changes. However, while solar energy is free, non-polluting, and inexhaustible, solar panels are traditionally fixed.

For optimal efficiency, solar panels should be perpendicular to sunlight where the illumination is strongest. But since the direction of sunlight changes during the course of a day – and from season ...
