Single cells can be used to form a grid of panels.
Australian solar-power company Sunengy has entered into a partnership with Tata Power to build a pilot floating solar power plant in India by the end of this year.
Construction of the pilot plant in India will commence in August. Sunengy plans to establish a larger LSA system in the NSW Hunter Valley in mid-2012 before going into full production.
The Liquid Solar Array (LSA) technology uses traditional Concentrated Photovoltaic (CPV) technology, whereby a lens and a small area of solar cells tracks the sun throughout the day, like a sunflower.
