    While  the idea might seem good, as more exposure to direct sunrays all day means more energy, you will not find trackers in the market designed for terrace use. Plus, the extra cost, even if you found one or even tried to customise one, would not be worth it possibly.

    The main benefit of solar compared to using coal or other polluting sources is the reduced Green House Gas emissions, less effect on the local water bodies, less affect on the coal mining etc. Extracting energy from sunlight reduces several such harmful effects which are otherwise involved when we produce energy from fossil fuels like coal, oil and gas. Many of these fossil fuels are exhaustible sources of energy and also their use leads to air pollution and increased global warming.
