Abstract

The results from the solar power generation system depend on the input and duration of eh sunlight entering the solar panel. However, problems will come when the sun changes every day from east to west and the weather changes frequently. They will result in the power generated by static solar panels not being optimal. This research collected data in East Kalisari Village, Surabaya, because this location has good potential for solar energy according to BMKG data from November 2022, which was the peak of the rainy season. The data showed the average solar radiation from 06.00 to 18.00 for 6 hours. For this reason, the researcher designed a dynamic solar panel that could follow the movement of the sun. A solar power plant optimization system is needed to maximize the acquisition of solar energy and increase the power generated by solar panels. The design of optimizing dual-axis solar panels using light intensity sensors could solve some problems of static solar panels, which could not follow the movement of sunlight. As a result, the power generated by solar panels could be optimized, and the potential of solar energy in East Kalisari Village, Surabaya, could be optimally used.

Abstract

Solar energy plays an important role in reducing dependence on fossil fuels. However, fluctuations in sunlight intensity cause power variations in solar panels. This research aimed to develop a Buck-Boost Converter system to stabilize the voltage on solar panels that could support the operation of water pumps in fish ponds. This system used Arduino-based hardware and control. The researcher conducted research through literature studies, photovoltaic (PV) system design, Buck-Boost Converter circuit, device testing, and data analysis. The researcher used the main components, including 100 Wp solar panels, Buck-Boost Converter, Arduino Uno, INA219 sensor, and DC motor pump. The researcher tested the system for seven days to observe the stability of voltage and power under various lighting conditions. The test results showed that the Buck-Boost Converter could maintain voltage stability with an average power of 56.4 W or about 65.7% of the solar panel capacity. The system efficiently charged the 12V battery to power the water pump. This technology was suitable for environmentally friendly and energy-efficient, renewable energy-based aquaculture applications, with great potential to support the development of renewable energy systems in the aquaculture sector

Abstract

Electric power is essential for daily activities; however, power outages frequently disrupt electricity supply, particularly for small-scale applications such as egg incubation in free-range poultry farming. The incubation process requires continuous electrical energy to maintain heat using a 15-watt lamp for approximately 21 days. To address this issue, alternative energy sources, especially solar energy, can be utilized through photovoltaic (PV) systems. However, PV systems inherently produce unstable output voltage due to fluctuations in solar irradiance, which may affect battery charging performance. To overcome this limitation, a Buck-Boost converter is implemented to regulate and stabilize the PV output voltage. In addition, temperature and humidity sensors are integrated into the incubator system to ensure optimal environmental conditions for egg hatching. Experimental results show that the Buck-Boost converter successfully stabilizes the PV voltage at 14 V, with an average current of 1.5 A in the first week, and 1.4 A in both the second and third weeks. Furthermore, the incubator maintains an average temperature of 37°C and humidity of 56%, which fall within the recommended range for successful egg hatching. These results indicate that the proposed system is capable of providing a stable energy supply while maintaining suitable incubation conditions.
