DOI: 10.53810/jt.v27i1.780Abstract
Penelitian berjudul "Perancangan Power Station Berbasis Panel Surya sebagai Power Supply Microgreen Incubator" bertujuan merancang sistem pembangkit listrik tenaga surya (PLTS) untuk inkubator microgreen. Sistem ini terdiri dari panel surya 100 Wp, baterai LiFePO4 12V 30Ah, dan solar charge controller (SCC) tipe PWM. Untuk meningkatkan daya, sistem dilengkapi dengan Dual Axis Solar Tracker berbasis mikrokontroler Arduino Nano dan sistem monitoring menggunakan mikrokontroler ESP32 serta berbagai sensor. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa solar tracker meningkatkan rata-rata daya input panel surya menjadi 104,51 W dengan intensitas cahaya 205,25 W/m². Energi maksimum harian yang diperoleh adalah 153,45 Wh, dengan efisiensi panel surya 16,45%, SCC 99,1%, dan baterai 9,20%. Total efisiensi sistem PLTS tercatat 1,31%, tergolong rendah akibat keterbatasan kapasitas baterai. Meskipun demikian, sistem mampu menyuplai kebutuhan daya harian inkubator sebesar 253,45 Wh secara aman dan berkelanjutan.
