Solar probe based autonomous solar tracker system - A review

The energy source which is becoming very popular nowadays is a sustainable energy source, because of the high cost and extinction of conventional fuels. One of the examples of renewable sources is solar energy. Solar energy is profusely in nature and inexhaustible energy resources around the world. The main challenge in the solar field is the less amount of solar energy captured by photovoltaic (PV) systems. To increase the efficiency of the solar power generation system we need to get maximum output from the panel. This can be done by using a moving solar power generation system instead of a standing one. According to the researches done, it can increase the generation from 25% to 38%. In this paper, an autonomous tracking system is being described which will get aligned with the sun which ensures the maximum power generation from the Solar PV Modules.
