| Summary: | This paper describes about solar energy is one of the energy sources that won’t terminated. Solar energy can be easily converted into electrical energy by using solar panels. Solar panels that are placed horizontally on the ground, the solar panel cannot absorb the light perfectly. Therefore, solar panels require an automatic
solar tracking system
to increase the efficiency of the solar panels. In this study, a solar tracker has been designed using a light dependent resistor (ldr) sensor based on the stm32 microcontroller. From the results of the study, the increase in power obtained from the use of a
solar tracker
was 27.97%. In
static solar panels
, the time required to fully charge the 12v, 7ah
lead acid
battery is 5 hours 10 minutes, while using a
solar tracker
the
lead acid
battery
charging time
is 3 hours 30 minutes. The use of a
solar tracker
saves battery charging time for 1 hour 40 minutes compared
to static solar panels
