Rotate Solar Panel Mechanism

This motor is getting controlled by atmega328 microcontroller mounted on an arduino uno board which is in turn mounted on the pcb.

Rotate solar panel mechanism.

Rotating pv panel systems may make sense in some cases but only if the increased amount of energy collected is substantial enough to compensate for the additional installation and maintenance costs and potential mechanical failure. Rotating panels may be able to increase a system s energy output but properly installed fixed tilt panels can provide the same level of output in most situations. Currently says parks even the more inexpensive solar panels still prove too costly for most families and the majority of panels are welded to the roofs of homes to deter theft. Very easy to make using only 4 piec.

Track the sun with a homemade swiveling platform. The motor is so operated that the panel can rotates two ways such as horizontally and vertically of its direction.
