Abstract
The demand for electricity continues to increase with the growing human population. Currently, Indonesia's electricity supply is still based on fossil fuels, therefore it’s necessary to develop renewable energy-based technologies for electricity supply. Indonesia, located in the tropics, has an average of 10 hours of sunlight per day, resulting in a solar thermal potential of 112,000 GWp. This great potential can be a huge opportunity to be utilized as an electricity supply using solar panels. This research aims to create a single-axis solar tracker system for power supply in street lighting (PJU). Street lighting plays an important role in supporting community mobility at night. This research was conducted in Banjaranyar Village, Randudongkal District, Pemalang Regency, Central Java. In this study, a comparison was made between a solar power plant (PLTS) system using a single-axis tracker and a static PLTS system. The PLTS system in this study is equipped with the Internet of Things (IoT) which can be accessed using the Blynk application to monitor the voltage, current, power, and energy from the solar panels and batteries. Based on the calibration results of measurements between Blynk and a Multimeter on the first and second PZEM-017 sensors, the measurement error was very small, below 1%, which means that the IoT readings are consistent with direct measurements. The effectiveness of solar panels using a single-axis tracker is higher than that of a static system. Respectively, the average power generated by the single-axis tracker system over three days of testing was 30.99 Watts, 31.73 Watts, and 35.35 Watts, with peak power exceeding 50 Watts. Meanwhile, for the static system, the average power over three consecutive days was 27.57 Watts, 26.43 Watts, and 26.03 Watts, with peak power between 49-50 Watts. In the night system test, it was recorded that the initial battery voltage of approximately 13 V dropped to around 12.7 V within a 12-hour testing period, with a load energy consumption of 168 Wh, indicating that the system is capable of supplying the load without solar exposure.
