High Efficiency Dual Axis P-V System with Bluetooth Controlled Load

Shashank Mishra, Abhishek Gupta, Vaibhav Raj, Harsh Vardhan Singh

Abstract


A dual-axis high-efficiency solar panel is a type of solar panel that uses advanced tracking technology to optimize its energy output. By using two axes to track the sun's movement throughout the day, this type of solar panel can maintain an optimal angle of incidence, ensuring that it receives maximum sunlight at all times. This results in significantly higher energy yields compared to traditional fixed-tilt solar panels. Some studies suggest that the use of solar trackers can increase can increase electricity production by as much as 30-40% compared with modules at a fixed angle. In this project a Bluetooth-controlled automated load is a system that is designed to save power by automating the operation of electrical loads, such as a smart phone by using an android application to turn On-Off the load remotely. Powering down the load when not in use can reduce energy consumption.
