“…Sugeno carried out further research in this area. The result of their work is the fuzzy logic controller (FLC), which has now become world famous [20][21][22]. The main advantage of the FLC is that it can be applied in situations where the controlled body is too complex or difficult to be mathematically modeled.…”

This paper proposes the development of a two-axis sun tracking solar energy system using fuzzy logic as intelligent quality policy. To achieve maximum efficiency for solar panels, it is necessary to follow the sun's path in the sky. Therefore, the architecture for the two-axis sun tracking solar energy system uses software to control the hardware. The hardware comprises (i) solar cells; (ii) lead-acid batteries; (iii) a gear box; (iv) a stepping motor; and (v) a light detection circuit, while the software comprises (i) a detection system; (ii) a fuzzy tracking controller; and (iii) a database system. A fuzzy logic controller is designed as the software architecture of the system to decide the timing for tracking the sun. The nearest position that results in receiving direct sunlight is obtained from the database. Our system is fully automatic in a changing environment and takes into account meteorological changes and the effects of the external environment arising from a malfunction. This approach reduces the number of starting motors and results in smaller energy loss in cloudy, cloud mask, or unstable weather conditions.

Because of human need for energy, extra special attention is in the usage of renewable-energy sources in recent years. On the other hand, environmental pollution is created with fossil energy. Photovoltaic (PV) energy is also one of the renewable-energy sources that are available in almost all parts of the globe, especially in Iran. One application of this energy is in water pumping system. In this paper, we precede the technical and financial study on photovoltaic water pumping system for irrigation of GORGAN's farm fields (one of Northern Province of Iran) with the RETScreen software tools. In order to the results, it is obvious that the usage of this clean energy causes the reduction on production costs during of its operation.

“…In the last few decades, different methods are utilized in order to achieve maximum power. The most prevalent technics are perturbation and observation algorithm (P&O) [3,4] Incremental conductance (IC) [5,6] fuzzy logic [7,8] and ANN [9,11]. According to above mentioned research, the benefits of perturbation and observation algorithm and incremental conductance are1-low cost implementation 2-simple algorithm.…”
