Abstract:

Solar energy is the most important renewable source of energy. The demand of Photovoltaic system is due to the fact that they produce electric power without hampering the environment. Solar PV modules directly convert solar energy into electrical energy. Solar energy is clean and completely natural energy. By using the Solar Tracking System solar module able to maintain the position that sun’s rays are always perpendicular to it. Solar Tracking system increases the output from of solar module. This paper reviews the progressive development of the technology used for solar tracking system. This paper also tries to emphasize the various practices and methods to promote the benefits of solar tracker and also discusses other techniques to increases the efficiency of solar module.
