Prototype of photovoltaic generator using artificial intelligence to control and optimize the maximum power point tracking

Abstract

The proposed solar tracker consists of mechanical, electrical and computing components, which are interrelated. The mechanical components include the structure that supports the panel and the mechanisms used. The electronic components include the microcomputer, the sensors and the actuators that control the rotating mechanisms. The entire photovoltaic power generation system corresponds to the electrical part of the project. The computer part includes the development of the artificial intelligence, as well as the development of the web interface to monitor the performance of the panel.
