Performance Analysis of Dual Axis Solar Tracker

Solar energy has emerged as a viable source of electricity due to its environmental friendliness and ability to reduce greenhouse gas emissions throughout the world. Solar energy has the potential to meet the world's energy demands, but our ability to transform it into electrical energy in an efficient and cost-effective manner is the sole constraint. Weather fluctuations and how much radiation falls on the panel or reflector determine how much power is generated from a PV cell. Solar trackers are required to ensure that the PV panel receives the greatest amount of sunlight. This paper looks at the Dual Axis Solar Tracking (DAST) system and a Simulink model is developed with MATLAB software to compare the efficiency of fixed and DAST systems.
