Single-Axis and Dual-Axis Solar Tracker
A dual-tracker moves the collector continuously during daylight hours to meet this condition, thus maximizing the solar energy harvested. Thus, the main consideration when deciding to use single-axis, dual axis, or no tracking boils down to cost. Most dual-axis trackers are active types and use two independent motors to turn the axis.

Solar power generation by PV (photovoltaic) technology: A review
The efficiency of energy conversion depends mainly on the PV panels that generate power. The practical systems have low overall efficiency. This is the result of the cascaded product of several efficiencies, as the energy is converted from the sun through the PV array, the regulators, the battery, cabling and through an inverter to supply the ac load [10], [11].
