Abstract
Abstract: Solar energy is a form of renewable energy that is generated through the use of solar panels. However, since solar panels are usually stationary, they don't always align with the sun's position as it changes throughout the day. This can result in lower energy output. To address this issue, a solar tracking system has been developed. A solar tracker is a system that automatically adjusts the position of the solar panel to track the sun's movement and maximize the power output. This paper reviews different types of tracking mechanisms used in solar tracking systems. There are two main types of solar trackers: singleaxis and dual-axis trackers. Single-axis trackers are suitable for areas around the equator where there is less variation in the sun's position. On the other hand, dual-axis trackers are better suited for regions where the sun's movement is tracked from east to west throughout the day and from east to north or south throughout the seasons. This paper aims to review various tracking mechanisms used in solar tracking systems. The objective is to explore different types of mechanisms that can improve the efficiency of solar panels by enabling them to constantly align with the sun's position.
