Abstract

This study explores the use of a Real-Time Clock (RTC) to enhance the energy conversion efficiency of solar panels by automatically adjusting their tilt angle. Solar panels equipped with RTC demonstrated a significant increase in energy output compared to fixed-angle panels. During the testing period, panels with RTC achieved an average daily energy increase of approximately 20-30% in open locations and up to 35-40% in obstructed areas. The RTC enables tilt adjustments to follow the sun's movement throughout the day, optimizing sunlight absorption. The findings support the implementation of automated tracking technology as an effective method to improve solar power system efficiency, reduce reliance on conventional energy sources, and support the transition to renewable energy sources.
