Abstract

With the increase in the need for electrical energy in the world, electricity is tried to be generated by various methods. Some of these methods cause global warming and environmental pollution to increase. Therefore, it is aimed to generate electricity using renewable energy sources instead of fossil fuels. The sun is one of these renewable energy sources. Electricity generation with solar energy is one of the methods that have become quite common in recent years. One of the most important considerations required to achieve maximum efficiency in solar power and electricity generation is to ensure that the rays are perpendicular to the panel. When this is achieved, the depreciation time of the system will be reduced and electricity generation will be carried out with high efficiency from these panels with limited service life. To achieve this, various solar tracking systems are designed. In this study, the analysis of fixed systems was performed by comparing them with single- and dual-axis solar tracking systems. Comparisons were made using a design and simulation software (PVSOL) program for photovoltaic systems. In these comparisons, the effects of single- and dual-axis solar tracking methods on depreciation time compared to fixed systems were examined.

1 Introduction

The demand for renewable energy sources is increasing due to the depletion of fossil resources and the damage they cause to the environment. As a result of this demand, many renewable energy sources have been discovered. One of them is solar energy. Electricity generation from solar energy is provided by photovoltaic panels. Many scientific studies such as solar tracking systems are carried out to obtain maximum efficiency from these panels with limited service life.

When the solar tracking systems used to obtain maximum efficiency from solar panels are examined; Seme et al. examined studies on single- and dual-axis solar tracking systems. According to the results of the examination, they found that the amount of electrical energy generated in all solar-monitored studies was higher [1]. Batayneh et al. compared two different fixed, single-axis solar tracking systems. One of the single-axis solar tracking systems was set to three locations: morning, noon, and evening, and the other continuously allowed it to follow the sun on one axis. These two solar tracking systems have a higher efficiency than the fixed system [2].

Abhilash et al. designed a single-axis solar tracking system using light-dependent resistance (LDR). They operated the irrigation pump with the system they designed. According to the results of the experiment, there was a 79.4% increase in the amount of irrigation [3]. Oral and Ucan designed a dual-axis solar tracking system instead of LDR, depending on the amount of energy generated from the panel [4]. Mamodiya and Tiwari built the single-axis solar tracking system using two LDR. According to the fixed system, the efficiency increased by 32.17% [5]. Rajesh et al. built the dual-axis solar tracking system using LDR. Compared to the fixed panel system, they observed a yield increase between 30.2 and 33.62% [6]. Morales et al. examined algorithms in active solar tracking systems. They found that it works more stable than passive solar tracking systems. In this study, 30% efficiency increase was seen compared to fixed systems [7]. Pawar et al. built the solar tracking system using eight LDRs. In this study, the angles of the panels from east to west were changed in eight steps with angles of 22.5%. They found a 40% efficiency increase compared to fixed systems [8]. Munanga et al. used a stepper motor and crank mechanism in the single-axis solar tracking system. Twenty-five percentage more efficiency was achieved than the fixed system [9]. Wu et al. controlled the dual-axis solar tracking system with a microcontroller. They determined the location of the sun with date, time, and geographical information. For this, they used a real-time clock and a satellite system (GPS) that made it possible to determine the exact position on Earth by measuring the distance between them and the satellites [10]. Jamroen et al. compared the solar monitoring system with dual-axis ultraviolet (UV) sensor with the LDR solar monitoring system and the stationary system. It was determined that the UV sensor tracking system was 19.97% more efficient than the LDR-fixed system and 11% more efficient than the solar tracking system [11]. Angulo et al. used a low-cost passive solar tracking system based on dual-axis image processing. They achieved a higher efficiency than fixed systems [12]. Akdemir and Karakaya used PVSOL in their study and examined the effects of controllers on the depreciation periods of the system [13]. Tyagi et al. talked about the decrease in the costs of solar cells and the increase in their use. In particular, they noted the high efficiency of monocrystalline solar cells [14]. Karimov et al. allowed it to follow four solar panels along a 120° angle. They have proven that the proposed system has high efficiency [15]. Akash et al. worked on solar panels, materials, and solar monitoring systems to improve efficiency. They decided that monocrystalline and dual-axis solar tracking systems were the most efficient [16]. Demirkiran and Karakaya compared the efficiencies of the same solar panels at different altitudes with PVSOL. They compared the data they obtained from the PVSOL program [17]. When such studies are examined, it has been found that single-axis solar tracking systems have higher efficiency than fixed systems, and at the same time, the installation cost is less than the dual-axis solar tracking system [18,19,20]. On the other hand, it has been found that dual-axis solar tracking systems are more efficient than fixed and single-axis solar tracking systems in terms of efficiency [21,22,23,24,25]. Many studies have been carried out to analyze the efficiency of PV systems using different programs [26,27,28,29,30]. Besides PV system, there are many different studies performed on material science for different purposes [31,32,33,34,35,36,37,38,39,40,41,42,43,44,45,46].

In literature studies, solar tracking systems have generally been compared in terms of performance with fixed panel systems. However, there was no comparison of these systems in terms of their effect on depreciation periods. Therefore, in this study, the analysis of fixed systems in terms of depreciation time was performed with single- and dual-axis solar tracking methods. A 450 kWp (kilo watt peak) solar power plant installed in Manisa, Turkey, was analyzed using the PVSOL program. Annual electrical energy generation data were obtained from the installed power plant models according to the application method. According to these data, the depreciation periods of the systems established were compared and yield analysis was performed.

2 Methods

Various methods are used in the generation of electricity from solar panels. The most commonly used method is the generation of electricity from fixed panels. In addition, various sun tracking methods are used to obtain more efficiency from the sun.

2.1 Fixed panel systems

It is the most widely used method recently. As seen in Figure 1, the panel angle is adjusted according to the latitude and longitude of the country and city. The panels are fixed on the profiles at this angle and their angles do not change. The efficiency of fixed panel systems is low as the position of sunlight relative to the panels changes continuously during the day. In general, it is the most widely used method in solar power plants and personal use recently.

2.2 Single-axis solar tracking system

To increase the efficiency of solar panels, single-axis solar tracking systems are usually used, which provide east–west rotation. As shown in Figure 2, the panel is mounted on a designed platform. The direction it will turn is determined by sensors or the scheduled time. The rotational movement is provided by a servo, stepper motor or a chemical that evaporates at low temperature.

2.3 Dual-axis solar tracking system

The sun is moved in the east–west direction during the day. Unlike the single-axis solar tracking system, panels are also provided to follow the sun in the north and south directions. As shown in Figure 3, the panel is mounted on a designed platform. The directions of movement of the panels are determined by using sensors or programming methods depending on the time. Horizontal and vertical rotational movement is provided by two servos, stepper motors, or a chemical.

3 Application

The PVSOL program was used to compare the energy generated by fixed systems and single- and dual-axis solar tracking systems. To achieve this, three on-grid 450 kWp power plants with equivalent characteristics were designed in Manisa, Turkey. The 3D view of the built power plants is given in Figure 4. The 21-year operation of these power plants was examined. These power plants were designed in the same city and location. A total of 1,500 units of 300 W Hareon Solar HR-300-24/Ca monocrystalline panels were used in each power plant. These panels were modeled on a flat terrain with an area of 77.5 m × 74 m. To minimize the shadowing effect, 2 m gap was left between the panels. In practice, panel installation costs were calculated as 1$ (₺13.65) per watt. The cleaning and so on expenses of the power plants were determined as 2,000₺ per month. The amount of electricity consumption of the motors used for each panel group in single- and dual-axis tracking systems was neglected. In addition, 20 kW × 20 kW SolarMax 20SHT inverters were used to transfer the electricity generated to the grid. Power plant models are on-grid systems with 3 phase 230 V voltage. It was accepted that the panels used in power plants have a loss of 1% annual efficiency. The unit price of the energy generated was determined as 0.5827₺, which is the price determined in the purchase of energy generated by the Turkish state from the enterprises during the period of the study.

4 Analysis of data

The data obtained from the power plants created in the PVSOL program are analyzed in this section. The effect of fixed and single-axis and dual-axis solar monitoring systems installed in the same position on electricity generation is examined. The cost, depreciation period, and profit amounts of these power plants are compared. The data of three power plants are shown in Table 1. When these data are examined, it is seen that only the types of power plants and the perspective of the panels toward the sun have changed. The power plants are installed at the location indicated in Figure 5.

The monthly energy generation amounts of all three power plants installed during the year are seen in the graph in Figure 8. According to this graph, it is seen that the production amount decreases in all three types of power plants due to the decrease in solar radiation amounts in winter, when clouds are high and shading is high. However, it is clear that the amount of energy generation of solar monitoring systems is higher than the fixed system. In the summer months, especially in July and August, it is seen that the difference in the amount of energy generated by solar monitoring systems increases even more compared to the fixed system. According to fixed systems, the energy generation of single- and dual-axis power plants was higher throughout the year. When single- and dual-axis power plants are compared to each other, it is seen that the dual-axis power plant generates higher energy than a single-axis power plant.

Figure 9 displays the total amounts of energy generation of power plants within 1 year. The energy obtained from fixed and single-axis and dual-axis power plants is 651687.7–914486.7 and 992833.3 kWh, respectively.

The estimated earnings chart for all three plants established is shown in Figure 10. When this graph is examined, the lowest gain is obtained from the fixed panel power plant, while the highest gain is obtained from the dual-axis solar monitoring system power plant. When the gain between the fixed system power plant and the single-axis solar monitoring system is examined, it is seen that there are big differences between the two. Compared to the gain obtained from single- and dual-axis solar tracking systems, it is seen that the dual-axis power plant has higher profits.

5 Conclusion

As a result of this study, based on the total energy generation amounts in a year; compared to the fixed system, it has been determined that the single-axis solar tracking system generates 40.33% more energy and the dual-axis solar tracking system generates 52.35% more energy. In addition, the dual-axis solar tracking system has been found to generate 8.57% more energy than the single-axis solar tracking system. At the end of the 21st year, more than 2832806.88₺ and 3686203.29₺ were obtained from single- and dual-axis solar tracking systems, respectively, according to the fixed system. The dual-axis solar tracking system was 853396.41₺ more than the single-axis solar tracking system. Depreciation periods of the systems were determined as 17.8, 12.4, and 11.4 years, respectively, in fixed and single- and dual-axis systems. In addition, it has been found that solar tracking systems increase their efficiency considerably by receiving more radiation than fixed systems in winter months or cloudy weather. For example, when the month of December, when the month of the most clouding is examined, the single-axis solar tracking system generated 166% more energy and the dual-axis solar tracking system generated 213% more energy than the fixed system. Compared to the single-axis solar tracking system, the dual-axis solar tracking system generated 18% more energy. Considering all these data, the installation of single-axis solar tracking systems may be more advantageous if the investment cost required for the motor and control units used in solar tracking systems is taken into account. In the near future, the use of solar tracking systems is predicted to increase to achieve higher efficiency from panels.
