Dual-Axis Solar Tracking Systems Review

The document reviews literature on dual-axis solar tracking systems. It discusses 4 papers on this topic published between 2015-2020 and compares the efficiencies of single-axis and dual-axis tracking systems. It then describes the components and operation of a proposed dual-axis solar tracking system, including block and circuit diagrams. The conclusion references 10 additional sources on solar tracking technologies.

EXISTING SYSTEM
Conventional Solar Panels

• Fixed-tilt mounting
• Limited sun exposure throughout the day
• Lower energy output compared to dual-axis trackers
Proposed SYSTEM
Dual-Axis Solar Trackers

• Two axes of rotation: horizontal and vertical


• Track the sun's movement throughout the day and seasons
• Increase energy output by up to 40% compared to fixed-tilt
