Solar energy is one of the most abundant forms of energy available through the geography of a nation. Therenewable energy technology mainly focuses on the off grid power services for the areas isolated from conventional powersupply system. The stand alone solar energy harnessing system has become a valid option in the recent past and times tocome ahead. There are applications which are relatively less in power consumption; in some cases the solar energy in theform of sunlight may not be consistent enough to provide a reliable option to similar applications where a cost effectivesolution is of major consideration. This paper is an attempt to address issues in such cases and provides a design solutio nto have a portable as well as foldable solar panel mechanical system that can be used to charge a battery based on theavailability of sunlight on that particular time of day, also to work effectively even due to obstacles of any nature whichhinders continuous and direct sunlight.
