The photovoltaics energy has been explored as one of the solutions to the decline in oil production, and environmental worries. However, generating electric energy throw the sun is still considered uncompetitive when considering other sources, because it shows low efficiency and high production costs. Trying to turn it more attractive to the financial point view, sun trackers are been used to increase the photovoltaics system efficiency. Considering it, this work aims to perform a comparative study between a static photovoltaic solar panel and a one axis mobile panel, both installed in Mossoró/RN. The city is located on northeast semi-arid, under high levels of solar radiation, on dry and hot climate regions, achieving high temperatures during day. Initially are discussed concepts related to solar photovoltaics energy, and tracking technologies. Then, are described the control components, sensing and structures used on the photovoltaics systems proposed. Lastly, the analyses about the functioning and comparing study about the performance of the static and mobile system were realized, allowing to conclude that the sun tracker panel showed low gain on the generated power when compared to the static panel
