Smart solar panels follow the sun, hide from hail and produce up to 56% more power

Researchers at Graz University of Technology (TU Graz) have developed a new type of solar panel system that not only follows the sun to generate more electricity but also folds itself away to protect against hail, strong winds and snow. The innovative system, called FLAPTrack (Face-to-Face Lay-Down Anti-Degradation Protection), could make solar power more efficient […]
