Why Solar Tracking Systems
Global warming has increased the demand and request for green energy
produced by renewable sources such as solar power. Consequently, solar
tracking is increasingly being applied as a sustainable power generating
solution.
Solar Tracking System is a device for orienting a solar panel or
concentrating a solar reflector or lens towards the sun. Concentrators,
especially in solar cell applications, require a high degree of accuracy to
ensure that the concentrated sunlight is directed precisely to the powered
device. Precise tracking of the sun is achieved through systems with
single or dual axis tracking.
SPECIFIC Improve the efficiency of a solar panel.

PROYECT
BACKGROUND In the solar cell market efficiency is crucial to avoid losing market shares
INFORMATION on the global energy marketplace. There are two main ways to make
solar cells more efficient, either by improving the actual cell or by
installing the solar panels on a tracking base that follows the sun.
The end-user will prefer a tracking solution rather than a fixed ground
system because:
The efficiency increases by 20-60% (= more money) depending on
where you are in the world.
Near the equator, you will have the highest benefit of tracking the
sun.
The space requirement for a solar park is reduced, and they
maintain the same output
The payback time of the investment is reduced
Our business proposal is to offer a complete linear actuator system that
moves the tracking base in your solar tracking system according to the
sun. We catch the sun and increase your output of the solar panel.
There are three main Solar Power Technologies:
Photovoltaic (PV)
Concentrated Photovoltaic (CPV)
Concentrated Solar Power (CSP)

CONNECTION BETWEEN
PROCEDURE Single Axis Tracking Systems
Solar panels with single axis tracking systems. The panels can turn
around the centre axis. LINAK can provide the actuators that tilt the
panels.
Dual Axis Tracking Systems
Dual axis tracking is typically used to orient a mirror and redirect sunlight
along a fixed axis towards a stationary receiver. But the system can also
gain additional yield on your PV cells. LINAK can provide you with quality
actuators that move these panels on dual axis.
