Abstract:
Energy produce by non-renewable sources like fossil fuels are getting exhausted as
humans moves ahead. World is shifting its production of energy towards renewable
energy like solar, wind and others. Solar energy is one ofthe most effective
in the South Asia. This report implement a design of foldable solar panel with dual
axis in order to provide more efficiency. This design consist oftwo sections, one is
hardware and other is software part. In hardware section, four light dependent
resistors (LDR) are used to detect the sunlight. Three gear motors are used, twowill
handle x-axis and one will handle y-axis rotation. In software part, the code iswritten
by using C programming language and is implemented on Arduino UNO controller.
The model introduced in this report has been fully explained that how this system
can maximize the efficiency ofthe energyconversion. That energy is then stored in
battery. This product is able to light up to 3-Watt bulb and store energy for an hour or
it can charge any smart phone for an hour. This product can be utilize in remote areas
where there is no electric utility in future.
