The invention discloses a double-direction solar panel control method applicable to an inclined orbit satellite. The double-direction solar panel control method comprises the steps that a mathematic model of the positional relation between the inclined orbit satellite and the sun is built and used for quantitative description of the motion law of the sun relative to the satellite; a solar panel driving error is defined according to the mathematic model and used as input of solar panel driving control; the law of solar panel capture control is determined, so that a solar panel is made to find the sun; the law of solar panel tracing control is determined, so that solar panel sun-targeted orientation is realized through sun tracing. According to the double-direction solar panel control method applicable to the inclined orbit satellite, the solar panel driving law and satellite yawing maneuvering are combined, and the problem that the inclined orbit satellite realizes sun-targeted orientation through a one-dimensional solar panel driving mechanism is solved; judgment and adjustment can be carried out autonomously according to the motion direction of the sun according to the forward flight and inverted flight of the satellite, and correct capture of the sun by the solar panel under different initial conditions is realized; forward driving control and inverted driving control of sun-targeted orientation of the solar panel are realized according to the forward flight and inverted flight of the satellite.
