Energy efficiency is at the top of the measures created against the ever-increasing energy need for supply. Moreover, the global climate crisis, the protection of the environment, and the improvement of the economy are only possible by optimizing active energy systems. For this purpose, it is a requirement that the solar panels have the appropriate tilt angles and correct positions in order to maximize the efficiency of solar energy systems. In this study, for the province of Van (43°38’ N-38°50’ E), whose solar energy potential is higher than the average of Turkey, the optimum solar panel angle according to the months of the year was determined for the south-facing solar panels. It has been determined that the annual panel inclination angle is 30.540 and in the case of monthly change of panel angles, the annual yield increases up to 14% compared to the horizontal plane, reaching an average annual radiation value of 5090 Wh/m2-day. 8 different mathematical models have been developed from 4 different variables for estimating the optimum angle value specific to the latitude of the region. The statistical coefficient of certainty (R2) range of these models varies between 0.9068 and 0.9964. As a result of these findings, the regression model, whose applicability and reliability have been proven, can serve as examples of locations at different coordinates in the same latitude. Furthermore, the results set an example for academics and industrialists in terms of the proposed model's engineering design, eco-energy analysis, and use in optimal design processes.
