☀️ What if solar power systems could adapt to their surroundings?

That's the idea behind FLAPTrack from Technische Universität Graz (TU Graz)!

FLAPTrack combines foldable photovoltaic modules with solar-tracking technology. Developed by Armin Buchroithner and Thomas Neubauer at TU Graz's Institute of Electrical Measurement and Sensor Systems, it is among the latest renewable energy innovations emerging from Austria.

The system is designed to increase energy yields while helping protect installations from challenging weather conditions.

What makes FLAPTrack different:

• The system follows the sun throughout the day, allowing it to produce more electricity than fixed PV systems. On average, it generates nearly 40% more power, with increases of up to 56% on some days.

• If storms or heavy rain are expected, the modules automatically fold into a safe horizontal position. A built-in hail protection net also helps prevent weather damage.

• The patented foldable design makes the system easier to transport and set up. This makes it a good solution for temporary, off-grid, and remote locations.

🌻Even sunflowers may now have some competition when it comes to following the sun.

Ongoing tests are helping researchers improve the system's performance, durability and lightweight design.

The next step is to determine whether higher energy yields can also deliver long-term economic benefits.

After seven remarkable years, we bid a heartfelt farewell to our Commercial Counselor Mr. Herwig Neuper as he begins a new chapter leading the ADVANTAGE AUSTRIA team in Vietnam. 🇦🇹🇻🇳

Over the past seven years, he has been instrumental in building bridges between Austria and the region, fostering strong business relations across Jordan, Lebanon, Syria, and Iraq, and helping numerous companies forge lasting, successful partnerships.

We gathered for one last time with our valued business community to celebrate his legacy and wish him well. It was an evening filled with gratitude, reflection, and emotion marked by moving words from both him and H.E. Marieke Zimburg, the Austrian Ambassador to Jordan.

Thank you for your dedication, your vision, and the relationships you've built. Jordan, and this business community, are better for your years here.
We wish you every success in Vietnam!

Wenn Österreich zum WM-Auftakt auf Jordanien trifft, lohnt sich auch ein Blick auf die wirtschaftlichen Verbindungen. In einer geopolitisch herausfordernden Region gilt Jordanien seit Jahren als vergleichsweise stabiler und verlässlicher Partner. 🤝

Wichtige Wirtschaftsbereiche sind unter anderem Tourismus, Dienstleistungen, Textil- und Bekleidungsindustrie sowie Phosphat- und Kalibergbau.

Auch die Wirtschaftsbeziehungen mit Österreich entwickeln sich grundsätzlich stabil. 2025 gingen die österreichischen Exporte nach Jordanien zurück, im ersten Quartal 2026 zeigte sich mit einem Plus von 8,5 Prozent jedoch wieder eine positive Entwicklung.

Chancen für österreichische Unternehmen bestehen vor allem in Bereichen wie Cybersecurity, Healthcare, Medizintechnik und Pharma, Lebensmittel sowie Umwelttechnik und Wasser. Besonders der sorgsame Umgang mit Ressourcen und der Ausbau erneuerbarer Energien bleiben wichtige Themen.

Aktuelle Infos und Wissenswertes zu Jordanien gibt es im Wirtschaftsbericht der AUSSENWIRTSCHAFT AUSTRIA - Link im ersten Kommentar!
