Dual Axis Solar Tracking System with Weather Monitoring System

Abstract

This paper presents the design and implementation of a solar tracking system integrated with weather monitoring capabilities. The system is designed to maximize the efficiency of solar panels by continuously adjusting their orientation to track the sun's position throughout the day. In addition to solar tracking, the system incorporates weather monitoring sensors to collect real-time data on environmental conditions such as cloud cover, wind speed, temperature and light intensity. This data is utilized to dynamically adjust the solar panel's position to optimize energy production and system performance in varying weather conditions. The integration of dual-axis tracking with weather monitoring enhances the overall efficiency and reliability of solar energy systems, making them more adaptable to changing environmental factors and increasing their potential for renewable energy generation.
