Abstract |
This paper represents development of solar tracker to track the sun for maximizing the power generation. Globally and nationally focus on solar energy has been intensified. Now researchers focus shall be on maximizing the energy conversion, therefore present study focuses on enhancing the conversion efficiency through tracking the solar energy. In this study there is focus on performance of PV panel at 0° & 19° tilt with ground surface for harnessing solar energy. It has been found that efficiency of tilted panel at 19° has increased by 18.98% as compared to 0° tilt with ground surface. Keywords - Raspberry Pi3B, Ardunio Mega, solar tracker , tilt. | |||||||||
