Abstract

Described is a method for managing a trackable solar panel assembly and a variable reflective surface. The method can receive solar farm characteristics and location characteristics for the solar farm. The method can also receive solar panel assembly characteristics for a solar panel assembly and variable reflective surface characteristics for a variable reflective surface. The method can optimize control parameters for the solar panel assembly and the variable reflective surface, based on the solar farm characteristics, the location characteristics, the solar panel assembly characteristics, and the variable reflective surface characteristics. The method can adjust the variable reflective surface based on the control parameters.
