Abstract

The development of solar energy technology seeks to improve the efficiency of solar panels by paying attention to the position of the sun. This study uses Fuzzy Logic Control (FLC) which is applied to a passive, active control system for solar tracking two axes. The FLC controller uses a light sensor as a reference to determine the value of the control variable so that it can eliminate the uncertainty factor in the control system. Active tracker using Fuzzy Logic Control is also able to track the sun's angles with reasonable accuracy.
