Abstract: A tracking system for performing a movement control of a solar panel is provided, having a single axis solar tracking solution allowing an individual actuation of a solar panel and its respective rotation axis. The tracking system is applied in an individual solar panel, and has a local control unit, an electrical motor, a tracking actuator mechanism, a blockage unit and a tracking support mechanism, which is useful for solar power plant installations where individual panel tracking is an advantage due to site conditions such as irregular grounds or unstable locations as in aquatic sites or locations with variable slopes.

Abstract: A set of connectors for modular support platforms is provided. The connectors are used to aggregate at least two support elements, forming a support platform which can be rearranged by adding new support elements and connectors. The set of connectors is used to form a modular support platform for a solar panel power plant, allowing its installation in water surfaces.

Abstract: A rotating floating platform, adapted to accommodate energy production systems, namely solar panels but not limited to these systems. The technology now developed provides rotational movement to the entire platform, on the plane of the aquatic medium where it floats, being its rotation capacity independent of fixed and rigid structures. In order to achieve this independency, the rotating floating platform comprises a central floating module connected directly or indirectly to at least two propulsion modules, where the connection to the bottom of the basin being provided through a flexible mooring unit forming a rotation floating structure where the momentum and the rotation axis act as one, thus creating a rotation platform.

Abstract: A floating module for modular solar panel platforms having two separate components mounted, a structural component that is a rigid component and a buoyancy component that is a flexible component allowing for a more compact and simple solution all-around. The floating module allows for a technologically more advanced floating component, easier to produce, transport and deploy than most currently available solutions.

Abstract: One exemplary aspect comprises a method comprising: (a) receiving data describing an executed trading order in a market traded security and related trade execution data; (b) calculating components of execution costs associated with execution of the order; and (c) transmitting data sufficient to describe the components of execution costs. Other aspects comprise calculations of (1) cost effect of trade decision factors associated with execution of an order; (2) a decomposition of execution of an executed limit order into components related to algorithm performance and components related to trader-input parameters of the order; (3) components of implementation shortfall associated with execution of an order; (4) components of profit/loss associated with execution of an order; and (5) components of execution outcome associated with execution of an order.

Abstract: One exemplary aspect comprises: (a) receiving data describing an executed trading order in a market traded security and related trade execution data; (b) estimating a price of the market traded security if the executed trading order had not been executed, based in part on the data describing the executed trading order; and (c) transmitting the impact-free price estimate. At least one other aspect comprises: (a) receiving data describing a potential trading order and related market data; (b) calculating an impact-free price estimate which estimates an execution price of the potential trading order if the potential trading order were to be executed without market impact, wherein the impact-free price estimate is based in part on the data describing the potential trading order; and (c) transmitting data sufficient to describe the impact-free price estimate.

Abstract: The present invention maintains a list of potential buy and sell opportunities tracking available liquidity at the best price displayed on the market in real time. When a block opportunity arises that would violate the constraints (e.g., cash balancing constraints), the subject system will consider if there are enough opportunities to trade on the market on the opposite side to bring the cash position back within the specified constraints. If cash balance can potentially be re-established by accessing displayed liquidity at the current best prices, the block execution is accepted and orders are automatically sent out to access this liquidity.
