Keywords:
photovoltaic station, solar cell, light-sensitive sensor, sun trackingAbstract
A sun tracking system for photovoltaic stations, consisting of a light-sensitive sensor based on solar cells, signal converter, microcontroller and rotary device is developed. The operation algorithm of the system is developed, and corresponding components are prepared. Field testing of the system has shown that as a result of uniaxial sun tracking, the energy efficiency of the photovoltaic station is increased by 25%.
