Abstract
A variable solar panel assembly includes a conventional solar panel, a mirror panel, and a transparent solar panel. The variable solar panel assembly is configured to reflect, by the mirror panel, light passing through the transparent solar panel towards the conventional solar panel. A method for managing an angle between the mirror panel and the conventional solar panel includes determining a position of a light source relative to a position of the variable solar panel assembly and adjusting the mirror panel to reflect light from the light source towards the conventional solar panel of the variable solar panel assembly.
