Dual-Axis Solar Tracker: An Efficient Budgetfriendly Way to Utilize Solar Energy

In order to improve solar energy collecting, this study investigates the development of an affordable dual-axis sun tracking apparatus. This technological attempts to increase efficiency by continuously altering the orientation of solar panels to follow the course of the sun throughout the day, as solar power gains popularity worldwide as a clean alternative to fossil fuels. The study begins with a historical overview of solar energy evolution and focuses on practical implementation using basic components like solar panels, servo motors, and light sensors. By constantly adjusting based on sunlight angles, the dual-axis system boosts energy generation efficiency. Mathematical calculations optimize panel angles for maximum sunlight exposure. Its affordability and practicality provide a sustainable solution for regions with abundant solar radiation, such as India. This research highlights the dual-axis system's potential to promote sustainable energy practices, reduce fossil fuel dependence, and mitigate environmental impact. Its cost- effectiveness makes it viable for widespread adoption in residential and commercial settings, contributing to increased global solar energy use.
