Enhancing Efficiency Using a Solar Panel Tracking System Switching to solar power is a great first step toward energy independence. However, many people realize that their fixed panels don't produce as much energy as they expected. This is often because the sun is only hitting the panels directly for a few hours in the middle of the day. To fix this, DIYers are turning to automated mounts that move with the sun. Implementing a solar panel tracking system allows your panels to stay active and efficient from sunrise until the sun dips below the horizon. This constant alignment results in a much smoother power curve throughout the day. Benefits of a Custom Solar Tracker The most obvious benefit of a tracking system is the increase in total power generated. Depending on your location and the time of year, you could see an increase of 25% to 40% in energy production. This means you can get more power without having to buy...
