“…Many researchers are working to improve the performance of PV systems by changing the outer surface of the PV system. Arissetyadhi et al 17 investigate the performance of PV modules arranged in arch configurations, using data collected in both dry (August 2019) and rainy (January 2020) seasons in Palembang. The findings reveal that the concave setting yielded the highest power (20.27 W) and efficiency (13.14%) during the dry season.…”

In pursuing advancing solar energy systems, this research uniquely occupies a position at the intersection of photovoltaic (PV) efficiency, innovative design and aesthetic integration into urban landscapes. This study explores the potential of thin solar cells applied to spherical and hemispherical surfaces and the influence of temperature variations throughout the day. By conducting a comprehensive analysis of voltage–current diagrams, the study deciphers the intricate interconnections of spherical geometries and their response to external thermal impacts, elucidating their subsequent effects on energy conversion efficiency. Moreover, it delved into the dynamics of connecting multiple spherical modules, unveiling their potential to form artistic and utilitarian constructs such as solar trees and architectural embellishments. The findings indicate that while spherical configurations provide superior aesthetics and a power generation profile comparable to solar tracking systems, hemispherical configurations offer a 32% increase in efficiency compared with the spherical configuration and a notable reduction in land footprint. This research underscores the importance of striking a balance between aesthetic appeal, efficiency and land utilization, providing valuable insights for the future of PV technology integration into urban and agricultural landscapes.

“…Many types of research are dedicated to increasing the output and efficiency of a solar panel by eliminating factors affecting efficiency, such as overheated PV panel by installing an active cooling system [7] and setting the PV panels on the water body to cool down the panel [8,9,10]. The effort also includes ensuring maximum irradiance received by the panel, such as by setting the semi-flexible panels in arches [19], developing an algorithm for MPPT [20], and applying sun tracker [21,22,23]. Sun tracker application is also applied to thermal solar power [24] [25].…”

Currently, more people choose renewable energy over conventional energy, such as solar energy, which is the most eligible renewable energy in Palembang and South Sumatra due to its strategic location in the equator. However, solar energy cultivation is experiencing various obstacles resulting in not producing maximum output, which is indicated by low output efficiency. Solar tracker or solar tracking system is one of the best methods to ensure the maximum sunlight received by the PV panels. This paper shows the effectiveness of a solar tracking system controlled by FLC compared to a fixed system. The data is taken for 15 days during the weather changing in Indonesia, from the rainy season to the dry season. The maximum power generated by dual-axis solar tracking and fixed solar panels is 96.4768 W and 63,5106 W, whereas the power generated by dual-axis solar tracking is 32.9662 W higher than fixed solar panels. The highest efficiency obtained by dual-axis solar tracking is 25%, while fixed solar panels are 16%. The application of dual-axis solar tracking can optimize and increase the efficiency of solar panels because the panels are always perpendicular to the position of the highest irradiance. Data results show that FLC-based solar effectively improves power output and efficiency compared to a fixed solar panel.

South Sumatra has an abundant solar energy source waiting to be optimally optimized. This potential is promising in all the economic sectors, such as agriculture. Solar energy application is one of digital farming implementation for agriculture and is expected to ease the farmers' workload. This paper presents the concept and design of a solar-powered sprinkler system based on IoT Monitoring. The effectiveness of the proposed method is proven by an experimental testbed of a solar-powered automatic watering system applied in a plantation. The watering system is activated based on soil moisture and is powered by solar energy. The experimental results show that the Concept and Design of Solar Powered Sprinkler System Based on IOT Monitoring are applicable for any plantation that requires regular watering.
