Sun Tracking Solar Panel Using Arduino Ppt

This system collects free energy from the sun and stores it in the battery and then converts this energy to the respective alternating current.

Sun tracking solar panel using arduino ppt.

Abstract our project sun tracking solar panel will include the design and construction of an arduino based solar panel tracking system. Single axis solar tracking system moves the solar panel from east to west in a day to point in the direction of the sun. This system can be used to store solar energy and utilize it for powering devices. It consists of only this components ldr module l293d motor driver module dc motor 30 rpm solar panel.

Solar tracking allows more energy to be produced because the solar array is able to remain aligned to the sun. The earth receives 16 x 1018 units of energy from the sun annually which is 20 000 times the requirement of mankind on the earth. There are basically two types of arduino sun trackers. Use an arduino two small servo motors with light sensing photo resistors to steer a solar panel towards the sun.

A single axis solar tracker improves solar output by around 25 and a dual axis tracker by around 40 according to this article on altestore. Now place the set up of solar panel and first servo motor to the metal strip of second servo motor as shown. Solar tracker is the best solution for receiving maximum radiation. This video shows the demonstration of rotating solar panel using arduino.

Its makes the energy usable in normal homes as an independent power source. Abstract in this paper a solar tracking system using arduino is designed and built. In this article we are going to make a sun tracking solar panel using arduino in which we will use two ldrs light dependent resistor to sense the light and a servo motor to automatically rotate the solar panel in the direction of the sun light. One of them is the single axis solar tracker and the other is dual axis.

Solar energy is rapidly gaining popularity as an important means of expanding renewable energy resources. It searches for the brightest light source like the sun. When the stick on top is righted to the sun or the brightest point the four ldrs get the same amount of light on them. This solar tracker control system is designed to take light measurements from the east and west left and right side of the solar panel and determine which way to move the panel to point it directly at the source of the light.

Advantage of this project is that solar panel will always follow the sun light will always face towards the sun to get charge all the time and can provide the supply the maximum power.
