A system and method for collecting renewable energy includes a solar panel and a down-sun wind turbine that are mounted on a same crossbeam. In this combination, as the crossbeam is rotated on a support pole, the solar panel is simultaneously rotated through a directional arc θ and an inclination arc Φ in accordance with a predetermined daily schedule that is based on the time of day and the latitude of the system. Also, as the solar panel is moved, the wind turbine is free to follow wind direction and maximize its collection of wind energy. To further maximize the energy collection capability of the system, the wind turbine is located on the crossbeam to remain down-sun from the solar panel and to remain free from wind flow interference that may be caused by the solar panel.
