Are there any tidal power stations that are are not anchored and are just foating over the serface of water having no connection to the solid ground? Can you suggest a data based of research papers on the subject?

None that are actually generating, but there are systems under development, e.g. Evopod (http://www.oceanflowenergy.com/)

P.S. The device floats, but is still anchored, otherwise it would gather a lot less energy as it would simply drift with the tide and there'd be no way to feed the power to the land.
