Design and Performance Study of a PV Tracking System (100W-24Vdc/220Vac)

This paper presents practical performance study of one axis mechanical tracking of PV grid connected system, which is designed, studied, and analyzed comparing with a fixed PV system at HIAST with capacity of 100 watts with tilt angle 35 degrees. This paper presents and compares the capital costs of tracking and fixed systems and the energy injected into the grid.
