ABSTRACT

This paper deals with the design & analysis of the Automatic Sun Tracking Solar Panel based on close loop concept. The main objective of the project is to get the maximum amount of sunlight from sun and converting it to electricity so that it can be easily used and transferred. This can be done by aligning the solar panel perpendicular to sun rays so that maximum sunlight can be converted into electrical form. As this system give maximum efficiency. The main feature of this tracker is that it is dependent on the intensity of sun rays for the east west tracking and it is independent for north-south tracking as it rotates as per the declination angle of the sun. It gives higher efficiency, high reliability. The advantage of this project is to provide access to an everlasting and pollution free source of energy.

Keywords: Close loop concept, Environment friendly, Everlasting.
