Abstract
Today energy is the main inspiration for socio-economic development. But due to incremental rate of environmental concern renewable energy provide a significant interest. This alternative power source is continuously achieving greater popularity due to continuous reduction in fossil fuels. It is the energy comes from sun, wind, rain etc. Among the non-conventional, renewable energy sources, solar energy affords great potential for conversion into electric power. Maximizing power output from a solar system is desirable to increase efficiency. In order to maximize power output, needs to keep the panels aligned with the sun. This paper deals with the electricity generation using solar power. The proposed system ensures the optimization of the conversion of solar energy into electricity by properly orienting the panel in accordance with the position of the sun. The operation of the paper is based on a Stepper motor intelligently moves a panel according to the light intensity of the sun sensing by light sensor
