Prototype for Automatic Orientation of Solar Panels 1Erika Natalia Abello Mendoza 2William Fernando Bernal Suarez Fundación Universitaria Juan de Castellanos Facultad de Ingeniería y Ciencias
For one, you must decide on the orientation and arrangement of your solar panels. For example, the solar panels should be tilted to the south in the winter in the Northern Hemisphere or the north in Southern Hemisphere. Next is the arrangement. Once tipped, no solar panel should cast shade onto another. Else there''s no point in tilting the panels. So tilting isn''t
South-facing panels give you the most bang for your buck because the sun crosses the sky in the south, giving the panels more sunlight. "We tell people that a solar panel costs the same amount regardless of what orientation it gets installed in," says Aaron Nitzkin, executive vice president of solar at Citadel Roofing and Solar in California (another

The microcontroller stops all operations at night and repositions the panel towards east to be ready for the next morning.

For a fixed solar installation, it is preferred that the PV panels are installed with a centralised tilt angle representing the vernal equinox, or the autumnal equinox, and in our example data above this would be about 38 degrees (38 o)..
The placement and orientation of solar panels is just as important as which type of solar panel is used in a given situation. A solar panel will harness the most power when the Sun''s rays hit its surface perpendicularly. Ensuring that solar

From the foregoing discussion, it is clear that solar panel orientation is a real need especially in the desert regions to improve the efficiency of the photovoltaic panels. Two degrees of freedom orientation is feasible and can be done utilizing part of the power output of the solar panel.
This orientation system is expected to save more than 40% of the total energy of the panels by keeping the panel’s face perpendicular to the sun. This percentage is assumed to be lost energy in the fixed panels. A special care should be taken to the design of the grid arrangement of panels in the collecting plant.
This calculation shows that it is feasible to rotate the panel using electric motors fed by the output of the panel itself. The previous calculation is based on having a symmetric shape of the panel neglecting the friction of the rotational joint and the air drag force.
Solar panels are frequently used for power generation in off-grid areas, such as for solar charge stations for electric vehicles. In order to maximize efficiency of these charge stations, solar panels must be oriented depending on both the time of day and the current season.
The orientation control system is a two degrees of freedom rotational mechanism. The outputs of this pointing system are the two orientation angles θz and θA. Figure 9 depicts a block diagram for the system including the kinematics and dynamics of the solar panel.
