🌞 Single-Axis Solar Tracker: Backtracking, Row Shading and Land Use against Fixed Tilt

Seven rows of single-axis solar trackers follow the sun from east to west. Tune row spacing (ground cover ratio), latitude, date and clouds to see mutual row shading, the backtracking angle that removes it, and the annual yield per panel and per hectare against fixed-tilt panels.
