The invention discloses an independently-adjusted solar battery array for a stratospheric airship. The soar battery array mainly comprises a solar battery array body, winding and unwinding ropes, an adjusting motor, a state monitoring module and a torque adjusting device. The state monitoring module is used for calculating state parameters of the airship in a flight computer, and optimum position parameters or angle parameters of a position where the battery array body needs to be rotated to and a new position, needing to be adjusted to be in a pod, of the torque adjusting device are obtained; instructions are transmitted to the adjusting motor and the torque adjusting device; and the adjusting motor receives the instructions, and winds and unwinds the winding and unwinding ropes to move the solar battery array body to the optimum position. Meanwhile, the torque adjusting device receives the instructions so as to carry out sliding of corresponding displacement so that torsional moment generated in the moving process of the battery array body can be balanced. Independent adjusting of the laying position of the battery array body can be achieved through the whole device, and the battery array body is made to be located at the optimum position with sun illumination all the time, so that solar energy can be utilized to the maximum extent; and the independently-adjusted solar battery array has the obvious advantages when being used on the stratospheric airship.
