- In today’s world energy crisis is one of the important issue. Environmental energy resources is a prime culprit for environmental pollution and also very limited. In the world to avoid the dependency on conventional resources, solar energy is rapidly gaining the focus.? Solar energy, as an important means of expanding renewable energy, uses solar cells that convert solar energy into electrical energy.
- Different approaches are imposed to increase the efficiency of the solar cells by tracking the sun. This system will rotate according to the position of the sun.
- The operation of the experimental model of the device is based on a servo motor which is intelligently controlled by an Arduino UNO board that moves a mini PV panel according to the rotation of the sun. The energy obtained from the panel is calculated and passed to node MCU. Node MCU sends a message to the user about the amount of energy is generated.
- Solar cells were formerly connected with raising angles. They do not follow the Sun, hence their efficiency of electricity generation is low. In northern India, For example, The elevating angle of a solar cell for the greatest amount of illumination During the day is 40.5°.
- The primary goal of the project work is to build a system for tracking the sun for a solar panel. This was accomplished by employing light sensors (LDRs) capable of detecting the amount of sunshine that reaches the solar panel. The LDRs' output values are compared. It also aims to find ways to improve the efficiency of solar panels. The tracking mechanism moves and adjusts the solar array in order to maximize?power?output.
- The Arduino Integrated Development Environment? - or? Arduino Software? (IDE)? - contains a text editor for writing code, a message area, a text console, a toolbar with buttons for common functions and a series of menus. It connects to the Arduino and Genuino hardware to upload programs and communicate with them. Programs written using Arduino Software (IDE) are called sketches.
- These sketches? are written? in? the? text editor? and are? saved? with the? file extension? .in. The? editor has? features? for? cutting/pasting? and for searching/replacing text. The message area gives feedback while saving and exporting and also displays errors. The console displays text output by the Arduino Software (IDE), including complete error messages and other information.
- Today in the world of rampant productivity, energy is the fundamental source upon which the whole civilization is based upon. As it is said that energy can neither be created nor be destroyed and, in that response, it can be signified that it can somehow be stored. The attempt towards making such goal substantiated, this project has been endeavored towards unraveling the path of such objectivity.
- It is quite natural that constant utilization of energies somehow opens the door of scarcity as per as earthly sources are concerned. Sun, in the stand of which, the tallest source, spiked over for age’s right from the origin of the whole universe, through which life has been conceived, is the basic and the mother source of all the energies.
- In that regards it would be worthier to reveal that commercialization has boomed its wings to such an extent in the need of money and power that we are somehow present in the pool of acute ignorance of the world’s resources scarcity, in consequence of which the whole world is wounded.
