This paper presents efficient solar tracking system. The solar panel is parabolic in shape and based on follows scheffler dish principle. Parabolic solar collector is made by using polished Al specular sheet material. Due to parabolic shape of dish, maximum area of solar panel is exposed to solar radiation.LDR and DC motor have been selected as driving mechanism of the system. In this project the one movement of panel / horizontal tracking (E-W) is done automatically and another movement
