ABSTRACT
Nowadays power demand has increased due to this power failure happens many time. This project is designed to provide the solution for this power loss. This project is designed with LDR, amplifier, ADC, microcontroller, driver circuit along with motor and limit switches. Solar panel consists of number of silicon cells, when sun light falls on this panel it generates the voltage signals then these voltage signals are given to changing circuit. Depending on the panel board size the generated voltage amount is increased. Naturally suns direction varies per hour. In order to get the efficient voltage amount the solar panel position has to vary as per the suns direction. Solar power plants need to be monitored for optimum power output. This helps retrieve efficient power output from power plants while monitoring for faulty solar panels, connections, and dust accumulated on panels lowering output and other such issues affecting solar performance. The project is also an automated IOT based solar power monitoring system that allows for automated solar power monitoring from anywhere over the internet. We use arduino based system to monitor a 5Watt solar panel parameters. The system constantly monitors the solar panel and transmits the power output to IOT system over the internet.
The use of solar system is increased in the last two years. The objective of this system is to Power of the system can be monitor using the current and voltage value sensed by the arduino. This system helps to implement in solar system for efficient usage. The electricity generated by capturing the sun light is called as solar energy which is used for business and home purpose. The atoms lose the electrons when the photons hit the solar cells. A solar panel is made of multiple panels that wired together, more electricity is generated by the more panels we deploy. Silicon like semiconductors are used to make the PV photovoltaic solar panels as shown in figure. Direct Current is generated by the solar panels. Most of the electrical appliance works on AC supply can AC can be less expensive for transmit to long distances. Many energy companies are expanding to offer solar, which is among the most energy-efficient and lucrative sources of renewable electricity on the market.
