 Solar tracking has two advantages:
-*gain in additional solar radiation – the amount of solar radiation received by the solar panels increases between 25–35% (annual mean value), depending on solar tracker type and installation site.
+*gain in additional solar radiation – the amount of solar radiation received by the solar panels increases between 25 and 35 % (annual mean value), depending on solar tracker type and installation site.
 *even distribution of solar irradiance throughout the day – the generated electricity and thus the pump’s water flow is almost constant over the day. This is important in an SPIS configuration where the water is pumped directly to the field without passing through a reservoir.

 '''The fixed installation''' of solar panels on a rigid structure is the cheapest, most reliable and most common method. Metal supports that are pile-driven into the ground are generally recommended for larger systems. They make the utilization of concrete foundations redundant and save labor and material cost. However, in developing countries, simple concrete foundations are often used for smaller installations and represent an appropriate solution, provided that static requirements are met. The installation is typically oriented north or south to have a relatively good distribution of the output over the course of the day.
-When the orientation of the mounting structure is variable over one or two axes,this is referred to as a '''solar tracker''' (see figure on the next page).

 In addition to the irradiance and cell temperature, the output of a solar panel is also dependent on the orientation and tilt angle of the panel surface. To maximize the output, a site-specific optimal orientation has to be found.
