A power system for utilizing solar energy, comprises a carrier, a converter for converting the heat of the sunlight into another form of energy, and mirrors for focusing sunlight onto the converter. The mirrors are mounted in a cylindrical frame which rolls about its horizontal axis on a plurality of rollers carried by a support on a circular table which is supported by an air cushion on a body of water within a basin. The table rotates about a vertical axis to cause the reflectors to follow the apparent horizontal daytime path of the sun; and the frame rotates about its horizontal axis thereby to make the reflectors follow the apparent daytime vertical movement of the sun. |
