What is it about?

Conventionally, PV panels are tilted with the site’s latitude angle or the difference between the latitude angle and the solar declination angle. A monthly-based orientation strategy has been proposed and analyzed in this study. The proposed strategy implies that the PV panels are tilted with the monthly-based angle that achieves the maximum incident radiation

Why is it important?

the new strategy increased the output power from the solar cells systems without using the tracks system.
