In addition, the project utilized the tracker’s design, Lambert’s cosine law, and the inverse square law. The dual-axis solar tracker was designed to improve the efficiency of solar panels by tracking the sun’s movement. The light-dependent resistors were used to measure the intensity of light falling on the solar panel, and the 3-phase NPC multilevel inverter, IR2110 switch gate driver, and buck-boost converter were used to control the motors’ speed and direction. The PIC microcontroller generated signals used to control the motors’ speed.
