SunPower and K6 have announced an agreement under which the companies are building two 1MW photovoltaic solar power plants in the Puglia region, Italy. At the sites, SunPower will reportedly install SunPower panels and the proprietary SunPower T20 Tracker technology. The Tracker follows the sun during the day and delivers up to 30% more energy than fixed-tilt systems, requiring only half the land area to produce the same amount of energy as conventional dual-axis trackers, SunPower said. The two plants are located in Casamassima and Conversano and will be complete by August 2010.
