Abstract

Indonesia's heavy reliance on non-renewable energy sources, such as fossil fuels and other resources obtained from mining, poses sustainability challenges. Solar panels, which are environmentally friendly and renewable energy alternatives, are designed to convert solar energy into electricity, and they have shown room for improvement in their efficiency. One method to enhance its efficiency is the utilization of dual-axis solar tracking, employing linear actuators for control over both horizontal and vertical panel movements. In addition, solar panels frequently experience efficiency losses as a result of high working temperatures when exposed to sunlight. The use of water treatment techniques may help address this problem. In this research, the two-axis solar tracking approach with water treatment methods were combined to achieve greater efficiency and boost energy production. A notable increase in solar panel efficiency was seen subsequent to the design, implementation, and testing of the proposed system, resulting in a notable rise in power output. Combining the two-axis solar tracking approach with water treatment methods produced solar panels with a 7.46% efficiency and a 17.77% power increment. Dual-axis solar tracking and combined with water treatment could significantly increase solar panel efficiency, which will ultimately lead to environtmentally clean renewable energy production increment.
