Design of the 13.2kwp grid-connected tracking system

Abstract

With the technology developed, PV generation has been changing from supplemented energy to substituted energy, and its application forms has also been changing from stand-alone mode in rural areas and other special conditions to grid-connected mode. In order to increase the efficiency of the PV generation and reduce the cost per Watt, Sun tracking system is an idea method in current technology conditions. The grid-connected tracking system with the capacity of 13.2 kWp is designed and operation result of the system in a typical day of winter is given in this paper.
