The current paper revolves around a MATLAB project for calculation of solar incidence angle, solar altitude angle and solar azimuth angle of any specific point on earth at any time of day for any date. This model helps us to know the optimum position of the solar panel for the maximum power generation from sun at any point of time for specific location. This model also helps us in comparing the difference in the given angles at any day or time of year.
