Solar Tracking using Arduino

Solar energy is one of the most popular renewable energy sources. In this era, every country is trying to push its boundaries for more efficient renewal energy source. Every nation is concerned to minimize their carbon emission especially the develop countries like USA, Europe, Japan etc. Energy is everyone’s need and clean source of energy is important for no pollution. Solar trackers has been gaining popularity all around the world because of its maximizing efficiency of solar energy. Solar trackers have simple mechanism and easy to operate. It is able to track the sun in the sky for maximum sunlight throughout day. Sun is an ultimate source of energy to the earth and also a green source of energy. It is important and can wisely use to solve our energy crisis. Solar trackers can be best alternative to this. The power generated by panels can be used for domestic works and the rest can be transferred to the grid for energy distribution. The hardware of this project can be implemented by using few components like LDR (Light Dependent Resistor),motor, Arduino microcontroller and battery. .There are so still many villages that do not get any electricity supply. This project help to provide electricity in rural areas.
