Performance analysis of a dual axis solar tracker

A study by the University of Arizona titled "Performance analysis of a dual axis solar tracker on a university carport in Tucson, Arizona" (2019) provides a detailed analysis of the energy production of a dual axis solar tracker system installed on a university carport in Tucson, Arizona. The study found that the dual axis tracking system produced 36.6% more energy annually compared to a fixed system. The study also notes the benefits of the dual axis system in adjusting to the changing solar angles throughout the day and reducing shading from adjacent buildings. The full study can be found in the Journal of Renewable and Sustainable Energy:
