Abstract
The aim of our project is increase the energy generation and improve the efficiency of solar panel. Sun is an abundant source of energy can be stuff successfully using solar photovoltaic cells and effect to convert solar energy into electrical energy. But the power output of PV cell is dependent directly on the light intensity and the position of the sun in the sky change continuously from time to time. If the panel is perpendicular to the sun at this time PV cell is more efficient. Here we Designed dual-axis solar tracker to enhance the efficiency of solar panel. In this dual axis tracking is design by using LDR, DC Motors and Microcontroller.
