Energy Efficiency of Photovoltaic Panels Depending on the Step Resolution of Tracking System
Kamil Płachta
Abstract:The article presents an energy analysis of a 3.5 kWp photovoltaic installation placed on a two-axis tracking system, depending on resolution of step tracking system, that tracks apparent position of the Sun on the celestial sphere. Measurements were taken during July and August, months with similar solar radiation intensity. During the first month, the tracking system changed the spatial orientation of the photovoltaic panels with a frequency of 20 minutes, while in the second month the resolution of the track… Show more
