This invention describes a solar system featuring multiple panels arranged in a line, each designed to rotate around an axis perpendicular to that line. A connected mechanism ensures all panels rotate in unison. The core claims specify these panels are either designed to conduct heat or are photovoltaic cells connected to an an electrical storage device.
Why it matters: Since 2007, solar panel efficiency has significantly increased while costs have plummeted, making the energy output from such a system much more valuable. Advances in microcontrollers and battery storage also make the sophisticated tracking and energy management described in the claims far more practical and affordable to implement today.
