Advanced solar tree with sun tracking and cleaning technolgy

Abstract Recently with the growing population and energy demands we should have more concerned about the renewable energy sources and this energy should not cause any air pollution and other natural hazards. For this situation solar tree is a better option for us. A solar tree is a best way to produce the solar energy efficiently [1] . Says about the technique used for the design of solar tree is the “SPIRALLING PHYLLATAXY” and it will helps to improve the efficiency of the plant. It is also much better than the traditional system because it requires only less place to produce the energy efficiently. Solar panel has been used in recent years to convert solar energy into electrical energy [4] . Says that the solar panel can be positioned in a stand-alone system or a large system that is connected to the electricity grids. Earth receives almost 84 Terawatts of power and world receives 12 Terawatts of power per day. Our system trying to consume more power from sun using the solar panels. To maximize the conversion from solar to electrical energy the solar panels have to placed perpendicular to the sun. The aim in this paper is to implement an automatic tracking and cleaning system, which can trace the sun location and clean the solar panel using the mobile app. The tracking system will change the position of the solar panel so that is positioned perpendicular to the sun for maximum energy conversion at all time. Photoresistors will used as the sensor and also it consist of light sensing system, microcontroller, a motor system, and a solar panel. So this system will give 40% more output than solar panels without tracking system.
