Solar tracking control systems design strategies: A review

There are many different strategies when it comes to designing solar trackers. They can be either single or dual-axis. They could be passive with no motors or gears or active incorporating the usage of a PLC, a micro-controller, or other controlling systems to be classified in various ways. The effi...

Description
Summary:There are many different strategies when it comes to designing solar trackers. They can be either single or dual-axis. They could be passive with no motors or gears or active incorporating the usage of a PLC, a micro-controller, or other controlling systems to be classified in various ways. The efficiency of the tracker is affected immensely with each choice made. Therefore, the design has to consider the area’s location, climate, and environmental conditions where the solar tracker will be installed.
