Rotating panels on the other hand need to be regularly maintained in order to keep the machinery in good working order.
Circular rotating solar panels.
4 5 out of 5 stars 45.
With tracking systems the panels are supported on pivoting platforms with wheels powered by a motorized drive to move the platforms along circular channels.
Thanks to smart cooling and smart cleaning common losses in output due to heat and contamination are prevented by up to 15.
