Abstract: The solar tracking system is the most common method of increasing the efficiency of solar photo module. This study presents the efficiencies of energy conversion of photo module with solar tracking system. The capability of photovoltaic (PV) panel to generate energy approximately follows the intensity of the sunlight on the panel. The proposed automatic tracking system controls elevation and orientation angles of solar panels such that the panels always maintain perpendicular to the sunlight. We mainly observe that most of the solar panels are positioned at fixed angles. In order to maximize the amount of solar radiation collected by a solar panel, we use solar tracking device whose function is to follow the sun orthogonally throughout the day which enhances the energy capacity of the system. This paper comprises of development and design of dual axis solar panel tracking system & experimental study of dual axis solar tracker compared to fix position solar panel in terms of performance enhancement. By using Maximum power tracking converter. We can increase the power generation as compared to Dual Axis and single axis power generation.

Keywords: Maximum Power Point Tracking System, Dual Axis Solar Tracking, Solar Power Efficiency.
