Norwich, England -- (SBWIRE) -- 01/18/2016 -- The generous power of the sun is now being utilized in Georgia starting last Tuesday afternoon. This marks the beginning of the solar partnership between the University of Georgia and the Georgia Power Company. The partnership is an initiative of the Georgia Public Service Commission to diversify the Country's portfolio of options for power generation.

Solar panels are known to effectively generate the energy that comes from the heat of the sun. Georgia is just one of those countries that find the alternative power generation a great alternative for providing adequate power supply to the community. In addition, the country has found a way to exceed one of the solar panel impediments – the solar panel allocation. It is a well-known fact that solar panels are most effective during the height of the sun's heat that falls directly to the solar panels. The country has created "solar tracking" where it arranges the solar panels in a way that they can follow the sun, thus, effectively maximizing its power generation.

The solar panels that are located at the edge of the wooden area are just out of view at the South Milledge Avenue that is near the State Botanical Garden. The solar panels are arranged into three separate configurations that allow it to follow the movement of the sun, resulting to higher power generation. Some of the solar panels are arranged in a way that they face south while some are facing southwest. Some solar panels are arranged to track the sun's movement while the others also change according to the compass' direction. This is to track the sun and its locations more easily. The current configurations of the solar panels allow them to move once every couple of minutes.

According to the Georgia Public Service Commissioner Tim Echols, the aim of the solar tracking project is to advocate the alternative energy sources that include solar power generation. It is to determine which of the tracking configurations give the most efficiency in energy conversion. The data that the solar panels could provide can become the guide for the Georgia Power Facility and other utility companies on deciding as to which types of the solar arrays are best to install all around Georgia.

Aside from the solar tracking project, the Georgia Power facility will also use the UGA's South Milledge track for some preliminary investigations for the battery-based power storage that will not be immediately placed onto the electrical grid.

The facility reports that at least a year of operation will provide great results to the effectiveness of the solar tracking project. This is the start of the alternative power source that every country around the world needs to have.
