Now a days solar energy is one of the important renewable source of energy. The renewable energy like PV Solar energy is important where the advanced of electricity is difficult. It is important due to the reduction in fossil fuels.In this study we are studied about the solar tracking systemand whether the fix PV system is better or the tracking system is better.A PV tracking system track the sun from sunrise to sunset for maximum extraction of power.Solar irradiance is important factor decide to whether used the PV panel with tracking system or without tracking system.We can improve the energy output by keeping the PV panel perpendicular to incoming solar radiation. The solar tracking system which is best alternative to increase the efficiency of PV panel’s .Tracking is helpful in case of cloudy days. In this study we studied the factors affects the performance of PV panels like the overheating in hot region countries. It is found that thetracking system is not feasible in hot country due to overheating effect. The effect of slope and the orientation on maximum power extracted from PV module .For this study the three positions are considered Normal (fully tracking), Tiltedfixed, and horizontal. For that it is important to understand the solar angle azimuth (a), Latitude (h), and inclination () of PV Panel.The cost of fixed tracking system is less than the PV tracking system due to motor and moving parts. But in case the system produce the high power then it is possible to reduce the 20% in capital cost.The dual axis solar tracking is beneficial to maintain the position of PV panel without any effect of clouds and other environmental condition. But according to cost and flexibility point of view the single axis tracking system is more effective than dual.
