Sun tracking in the solar panel is done by a solar tracker (a computerized or timer device) which basically orients a payload towards the sun.
By measuring the output. Each solar panel has a wattage, for example, 200 watts. You can multiply that wattage by the number of hours in a day that the sun shines, for example, 6 hours, and the answer is in kWh (0.2 kW x 6 = 1.2 kWh).
A heliostat is a device that uses mirrors to track the movement of the sun and reflect sunlight onto a specific target, such as a solar panel or a building. It is commonly used in solar energy systems to maximize the amount of sunlight that can be captured and converted into usable energy.
A metal dish is used as the framework of a solar panel because the sun heats the metal, heating the water inside
A solar panel produces electrical power when the Sun's light falls on it. The typical solar panel used in the UK of 1.2 square metres produces 220 Watts when the Sun shines directly on to it at right angles from a clear sky. If the Sun is not shining directly on it, the power is reduced by the cosine of the angle. It is true that solar panels also produce energy on a cloudy day, a fact that is always quoted by the salesmen. But even in light cloud, a solar panel produced hardly energy at all, maybe only 5% of the rated amount or less.
The energy output from a solar panel varies during the day due to factors such as changes in sunlight intensity, angle of sunlight hitting the panel, and shading from nearby objects. These variations affect the amount of sunlight absorbed by the solar panels, resulting in fluctuations in energy production.
Solar systems get their energy from the sun. Solar energy is captured by a solar panel, or collector. This panel converts solar energy to electrical energy.

when the sun hits the solar panel it creates a current
Solar panels harness energy from the sun--Solar energy!

SOLAR PANEL Of COURSE!(not to be mean)
You use the solar panel.
Uh... The sun.
Electromagnetic energy.
