Abstract

The increasing of the incident radiation on the photovoltaic module improves the most performance parameters and characteristics such as power output and performance. In this paper, our contribution is to develop a prototype of sun tracking and to study its performance, allowing the permanent orientation of the PV module opposite the sun during the day to increase energy output and effectiveness. The results obtained on the experimental site are achieved, or 27.48 % of energy gain, which explains that the monitoring system is able to deliver high power and a better conversion efficiency compared to a fixed module inclined 30° at the same latitude.
