Most solar panels do not move with the sun. They typically face East, the rising of the sun, and stay stationary to receive the energy from the sun. Some do, however, move in relation to the sun. This is because the sun releases energy which the panels convert into electricity

IN ADDITION:Just like a sunflower, some solar panels are programmed to keep as much surface in direct sunlight as it possible can as the sun arcs across the sky. This ensures the maximum amount of power that can be produced by the panels.
