Abstract: Renewable energy is a type of energy that is derived from ongoing natural processes and energy of natural processes converted into available forms. Solar energy is any type of energy that is generated by the sun. To make use of this energy and convert it into electricity we use solar panels. A solar panel has maximum productivity when the sun rays are incident at right angle to it. Usual home use solar panels are fixed in a stationary position hence there will be only a certain time in the day that the sun-rays are incident at right angle on the panel. A solar tracking system is a single-axis rotating system which aims for solar panels to operate by tracking the sun's movement throughout the day which makes it possible for the rays to arrive perpendicular to the panels. This maximises the productivity of the panel. Solar tracking system was designed which used LDRs in form of a voltage divider circuit to sense the sunlight and actuate the stepper motor to rotate the panel over a single-axis so that the sun-rays the panel is perpendicular to the sun-rays. This model was tested out alongside a stationary solar panel. Readings were noted down of both panels every hour. The panel with the tracking system proved to be more productive than the stationary panel as it had generated more power over each hour. The panel could be moved both automatically with the help of the sensors and through manual mode using the blynk UI
