Increasing Efficiency of Solar Panel Using Movable Reflector
In today's world renewable energy is widely used for generation of electricity. Some renewable energies are also known as green energy because it does not pollute the environment for generation of power and renewable in nature. This source of energy can be renewed again and again and cannot be destroyed. These are continuously available on Earth and naturally replenished resources such as sunlight, wind, rain, tide etc. Additionally, Solar energy is the type of energy that comes under renewable energy source. Solar energy is most commonly used green energy source in which Solar energy is transformed into electrical energy by sunshine. Solar photovoltaics uses solar energy directly to generate electricity, whereas solar thermal collectors use solar energy indirectly to produce heat energy. Thus, it produces enough energy for the generation but it seems that the efficiency of the panel can be able to increase by providing reflector to it. [1] The reflector attracts more sunlight from the sun than the normal and reflect it to the solar panel that causes more radiation leading to higher generation. To increase the efficiency here we built a movable or rotating reflector that moves according to the direction of sun to achieves uniform efficiency all the time.
