Efficient Solar Tracking and Power Management System Through IoT Integration
Solar Tracking Management System designed to enhance the efficiency of solar panels by dynamically adjusting their position to align with the sun's movement. The system utilizes an ESP32 microcontroller, Light Dependent Resistors (LDRs), and a servo motor to achieve precise solar tracking based on sunlight intensity. Solar Tracking Management System aimed at maximizing the efficiency of solar panels by automatically adjusting their orientation to follow the movement of the sun. The system employs an ESP32 microcontroller, Light Dependent Resistors (LDRs), and a servo motor to perform accurate solar tracking depending on the intensity of sunlight. The LDR sensors identify changes in light, allowing the servo motor to adjust the solar panel for maximum energy harvesting. The system features a dual-axis solar tracking system, utilizing light-dependent resistors (LDRs) as solar irradiance sensors and servo motors for dynamic photovoltaic panel orientation adjustment to achieve the best incident angles of sunlight. A microcontroller-based embedded system controls the real-time tracking algorithm and energy management system, battery energy storage system, direct load utilization, and excess energy handling.
