Análise comparativa da geração de energia entre um sistema fotovoltaico estático e com rastreamento solar no município de Santiago-RS

Abstract

The use of alternative energy sources has been widely explored to search for the diversity of the energy matrix, boosting the use of clean and renewable energy generation. of inexhaustible energy, both as a source of heat and light. Photovoltaic solar energy is one of the main resources of solar energy, however this type of energy generation is considered uncompetitive compared to other generation sources. In the quest to increase its efficiency and consequently make it more attractive, solar trackers have been used to increase the income of photovoltaic modules. In this dissertation, a study will be implemented to compare a fixed photovoltaic system and another with two-axis solar tracking, installed in the city of Santiago/RS. Initially, concepts related to solar energy and types of solar trackers are reported. Next, the materials used in the two proposed photovoltaic systems are described. Finally, the comparison analyzes between the fixed and mobile system were performed. Keywords: Alternative energy sources, solar tracking, photovoltaic solar energy, solor energy.
