Abstract: ABSTRACT SOLAR PANEL WITH STEPPER MOTOR FOR AUTOMATIC ROTATION WITH DRY The present invention relates to the integration of stepper motor technology into solar panel systems for automatic rotation represents a groundbreaking innovation poised to revolutionize renewable energy technology. This advancement aims to address the inherent limitations of fixed- position solar panels by dynamically adjusting their orientation to track the sun's movement throughout the day The system consists of a network of solar panels installed on a solid support structure, with precision-engineered stepper motors perfectly integrated into the mounting framework. These stepper motors power the automated rotation system, which allows the panels to change orientation in real time to maximize sunshine exposure. A complex control algorithm lies at the heart of the system's performance, reinforced by environmental sensors that continuously monitor important parameters such as solar irradiation, panel temperature, and shading. The control algorithm uses this data to make exact modifications to the orientation of the solar panels, ensuring that they remain perfectly aligned with the sun's position for maximum energy capture.
