Abstract
Disclosed is a (solar) light electrical power generation unit including a concentrator plane of one or more photo-concentrator structures and a conversion surface including one or more photovoltaic (“PV”) active regions. The conversion surface is substantially parallel to the concentrator plane, and actuators may adjust a relative position between the concentrator plane and the conversion surface while maintaining the parallel relation between the concentrator plane and the conversion surface.
