California-based portable power and green energy company Jackery introduced its Solar Generator Mars Bot at last week’s CES in Las Vegas.

Catering to various off-grid outdoor needs, this product is a PV-ESS charging integrated intelligent service robot with a light tracking system. It is said to offer a fresh perspective on the efficient use of renewable clean energy.

Inspired by Opportunity, the robotic rover that was active on Mars from 2004 until 2018, the Jackery bot represents a novel approach to the efficient use of renewable clean energy amid the energy crisis. The robot offers a high-efficiency photoelectric conversion rate and ensures a seamless electricity experience with its intelligent movement system. It is a nod to the adventurous spirit, providing a reliable energy source for those who dare to venture into the unknown and explore the world.

The robot has an automatic sunflower solar tracker system for autonomous navigation and sunlight tracking, enabling it to seek out strong light for power generation or charging. It integrates solar panels with an energy storage system, with foldable photovoltaic panels that offer a 600W output and 25% maximum solar conversion efficiency. Constructed from durable, weather-resistant aluminium alloy, the robot is suitable for various scenarios such as emergency rescue, outdoor events and RV life.

In addition, Jackery showcased the Solar Generator for Rooftop Tent, an off-road overlanding home, which can provide up to 6kWh for one-day overlanding and two-week outdoor life. The brand also introduced the Solar Generator Home Kit, including an E2000 Plus, an add-on battery, two 200W solar panels and an auto transfer switch, serving as an emergency backup power source during power outages and natural disasters.
