Abstract

With the world's population growing, there is a pressing concern for the availability of power. While solar and wind power plants have been built, they are not entirely reliable as they are non-renewable. Nuclear and hydropower have their challenges as well, leaving renewable energy sources like solar and wind as the best options. To improve the efficiency of solar arrays, solar trackers have been used to adjust the panels' position in relation to the Sun, maximizing energy output. This paper presents a new design for a dual-axis solar tracking system that uses a light-dependent resistor and DC motors. The system's mechanical structure includes a gear arrangement, which increases the directivity of the Sun's beams, leading to higher energy efficiency. The development of this system could help address the issues of energy scarcity and global warming by improving the utilization of renewable energy resources.
