Abstract: This review paper comprehensively examines solar tracking systems and associated techniques for optimizing renewable energy capture. It discusses two primary types: single-axis and dual-axis trackers. . Economic Reality Check: While solar trackers can increase energy production by 25-45%, they're rarely cost-effective for residential installations in 2025. Single-axis trackers follow the sun's daily east-to-west movement, significantly. . The open-loop strategy consists of a programming code to calculate the apparent sun position, sending command signals to the actuator systems in azimuth and elevation tracker axes. In the open-loop strategy, the actual position of the sun is not verified. These systems play a huge role in boosting energy output, making solar power even more sustainable and reliable. The performance status of an automatic solar tracking system depends on various factors. . Solar tracking systems regulate the direction so that a solar panel is always aligned with the sun's position.

This study explores the potential of sensible thermal energy storage systems to support solar energy integration for industrial heating applications, addressing the intermittency challenge of solar power. Thermal energy storage methods consist of sensible heat. . Storage enables electricity systems to remain in balance despite variations in wind and solar availability, allowing for cost-effective deep decarbonization while maintaining reliability. Sensible heat storage stores thermal energy by heating or cooling a storage medium (liquid or solid). .
