Automatic Sun Tracking System with Dual Axis
AUTOMATIC SUN TRACKING SYSTEM WITH DUAL AXIS K Srinivasa Rao1, G.Sreedhara Babu2 and M.Rajesh3 1,2,3Department of Mechanical Engineering,V.R.Siddhartha Engineering College Abstract— The aim of this paper is to solve the problem of energy crisis which is considerably serious issue in today’s period. It is becoming essential to increase use of renewable sources of energy namely solar energy as compared to conventional sources for energy generation. Solar energy is rapidly gaining notoriety as an important means of expanding renewable energy resources. As such, it is vital that those in engineering fields understand the technologies associated with this area. Our project will include the design and construction of a microcontroller-based solar panel tracking system. It uses 8051 microcontroller and stepper motor to move solar panel according to position of sun. Photo resistors are also used to detect light intensity. Solar tracking allows more energy to be produced because the solar array is able to remain aligned to the sun. A technology namely solar tracking system is introduced to improve efficiency of solar cells by tracking sun’s energy. A working system will ultimately be demonstrated to validate the design. Problems and possible improvements will also be presented. A solar panel receives the most sunlight when it is perpendicular to the sun’s rays, but the sunlight direction changes regularly with changing seasons and weather. Currently, most solar panels are fixed, i.e., the solar array has a fixed orientation to the sky and does not turn to follow the sun. To increase the unit area illumination of sunlight on solar panels, we designed a solar tracking electricity generation system. -

IJRET: International Journal of Research in Engineering and Technology eISSN: 2319-1163 | pISSN: 2321-7308 TECHNIQUES TO UPGRADE INDIAN SOLAR POWER SECTOR BY ANALYSING THE TOP RANKING SOLAR POWER COUNTRIES Shantanu Rawat1, Himanshi Rana2, Deepanvita Maurya3, Deepak Kumar4 1Department of Electrical, University of Petroleum & Energy Studies, Dehradun, India 2Department of Aerospace, University of Petroleum & Energy Studies, Dehradun, India 3Department of Mechanical, University of Petroleum & Energy Studies, Dehradun, India 4Assistant Professor, Department of Electrical, University of Petroleum & Energy Studies, Dehradun, India Abstract As fossil fuels are depleting day by day it is the high time to switch to renewable energy. Many countries have already realized this fact and have started focusing on the renewable energies. The main focus of all countries is on solar power [1]. Though many countries have developed themselves in solar power generation since last one decades but India hasn’t started yet. The major solar power producing countries are China, Germany and Japan and if we try to compare India with these countries we stand far apart in the queue. Though India has one of the best climatic conditions to support solar power generation. India is a sun-blessed country which has clear 300 days of sunshine, which is comparatively much more than the other countries [2]. The total power generated by India is 267,637.35 MW (till March 2015) and out of which we are generating only 5,050 MW through solar energy [3]. To satisfy the demand of power supply all over the country in future, we need to install more number of solar power plants such as to provide us maximum output as a result in much more advanced technique [4]. -
Solar Energy – the New Ray of Life & Hope for Mankind
International Journal for Research in Engineering Application & Management (IJREAM) ISSN : 2454-9150 Vol-05, Issue-05, Aug 2019 Solar Energy – The New Ray of Life & Hope for Mankind Ramadas . K . V, Assistant Professor, People Institute of Management Studies, Kasargod, India, [email protected] Dr. P.N.Rahgunathan, Head of the Department, Government Arts College, Coimbatore, India, [email protected] Abstract - Ever since our forefathers inhabited the earth about 2,00,000 years ago, we have pillaged and plundered this once virgin planet with abundant flora and fauna and brought it to the brink of extinction with hardly a thought for posterity or how they will survive in this manmade barren wasteland. In the name of industrialization, and urbanization, we have plundered the forest wealth, fossil fuels, changed the course of rivers leading to severe water shortage, created giant industries and thermal power plants leading to steady global warming. The situation has now reached alarming proportions calling for immediate remedial measures. Switching over to renewable energy sources and a cutback in the use of fossil and nuclear fuels is now being done on a war footing with every country trying their best to bring down carbon emission. A progress shown by the major players are indeed highly encouraging and holds high promise for the future of our planet. By the year 2050, mother earth will be a better place to live in if every country meets the emission norms given in the Paris Agreement of 2015. Keywords: Climate Change, Carbon Emission, Global Warming, Kyoto Protocol, Paris Agreement, Renewable Energy, Sustainable Development, Solar Energy, Solar Power II. -

I Europa, och i Sverige, är målsättningen att 20 procent av EU:s energikon- sumtion ska komma från förnybara källor år 2020 och andelen biodrivmedel ska samma år vara minst 10 procent. Dessutom ska EU nå ett mål om 20 procents energieffektivisering till år 2020. I snabbväxande länder som Kina, Indien och Brasilien är tillgången till billig och säker energi en förutsättning för fortsatt ekonomisk utveckling och här ses den förnybara ener- gin, liksom energieffektivisering, som ett sätt av diversifiera energimixen och minska be- roendet av fossila bränslen. Trots till viss del skilda motiv pågår i såväl Europa som i de snabbväxande ekonomierna ett intensivt arbete för att utforma insatser och styrmedel med syfte att skapa incitaments- strukturer som befrämjar investeringar i utveckling och implementering av ny energitek- nik. -
