Solar-Cell Implementation for Supporting Tourist Facilities and Tourism Promotion Media

Abstract

Solar-Cell panels function is to capture the energy of sunlight and then convert it into electrical energy. In this tool, Solar-Cell panels can move according to the tilt of the sun's direction of motion so that the captured sunlight can be maximized. The electrical energy is used for free tourist facilities such as lighting, internet wi-fi, charging electronic devices, CCTV, and LCD. This tool will be placed in one of the tourist attractions in the city of Padang. So far, based on observations, tourists do not like to linger in tourist attractions because of the lack of free facilities for tourists. They cannot charge their gadgets, cannot access free internet, feel unsafe because there are no CCTV cameras and no audio-visual media. The purpose of this tool is made to increase the number of tourist visits to tourist attractions in Padang so that it can increase the PAD of Padang.
