Abstract
Solar and Wind energy are the least polluting and most inexhaustible of all known energy sources. The sun bathers the earth with more energy each minute then the world consumes in one year. Fossil fuels are a relative short-term energy source and to overcome this problem the uses of alternative sources such as solar and wind energy are becoming more wide spread. To make solar energy more efficient, the solar panel system must be maximized. This project is regarding the development of a system that automatically controls the power supply through different energy sources without any power cut off. This system is based on a simple solar tracking system, a wind turbine (Demo model) and a System (Wapda) that controls the supply in absence of both these sources. The solar tracking system used in this method could increased the power collection efficiency by developing a device that can tracks the sun to keep the panel at a right angle to its rays. As the plane of the solar panel is always maintained normal to the sun's rays, maximum power is generated by the array. Above mentioned system is designed, implemented and experimentally tested. The design details and the experimental results are shown promising result.
