As we saw at the last CES 2023 in Las Vegas, Jackery is a battery (power station) manufacturer that never stops innovating. And on the occasion of its 11th anniversary, this global leader in portable outdoor power solutions unveiled the Solar Mars Bot, which also won Time magazine's Best Inventions 2023 award in the Green Energy category! “Making solar energy accessible to as many people as possible is our corporate mission, and we are delighted to receive this award as recognition of ingenuity and innovation in the field of green energy. Jackery's Solar Mars Bot embodies our vision of sustainable energy production as we work toward a cleaner, more energy-efficient future.”Ricky Ma, Head of Jackery EMEA As the world faces energy crises and the effects of climate change, the development of sustainable and efficient energy solutions is essential. Jackery is committed to this mission and is taking a further step in mobile energy solutions with this new conceptual product study. Solar Mars Bot: a UFO in the world of power stations
Basically, the Solar Mars Bot is a large robotic battery, capable of moving wherever it wants, to better position itself facing the sun and thus optimize battery charging thanks to its solar panels. Its goal is simply to optimize battery charging, so it never runs out of power!
To achieve this, this smart photovoltaic energy storage device on wheels is equipped with various 4G sensors, as well as laser radar and camera modules to avoid obstacles. It features multiple highly efficient solar panels that, thanks to the pivoting arm and sensors, automatically align with the sun to maximize energy production on sunny days without manual intervention!
The energy is stored in a high-performance lithium iron phosphate battery that meets the highest standards for safety and durability. A wide range of connections, including AC outlets as well as USB-C and USB-A ports, can then be used to power power-hungry devices at any time.
The Solar Mars Bot in more detail…
The Solar Mars Bot is an intelligent service robot integrated into the PV-ESS charging system and equipped with a light-tracking system. Featuring high photoelectric conversion efficiency and an intelligent motion system, it provides optimal solar charging and meets the diverse energy demands of off-grid outdoor environments. This robot is equipped with intelligent sensors for visual obstacle avoidance and independent movement planning, a light tracking system, and a power self-monitoring system to independently plan its path to locations with bright light for photovoltaic power generation or to charging piles for charging in the absence of light.
The foldable structure of the solar panels improves the product's space utilization rate and increases the light-receiving area when unfolded, thereby improving photoelectric conversion efficiency.

User Benefits:

It can be connected to the power grid to store electrical energy when the power supply is sufficient, so it can be used in emergencies to reduce electricity costs.
Users don't need to check the power of the energy storage product, as this robot will choose light charging or charging batteries to obtain energy based on the amount of electricity and light conditions to ensure a full battery for energy storage.

This product can meet the energy demands of off-grid outdoor scenes, such as backyard parties, large camping shows, RV life, and more.

Aesthetically, this product cleverly combines solar panels and an energy storage system. The integrated PV-ESS charging design makes the product simple.

Thanks to the modularization design, innovative foldable photovoltaic panels are placed on the top. When folded, the compact size enhances the product's mobility and aesthetics. They can be driven by connecting rod motors to stabilize the chassis while increasing the light-receiving space, thereby improving photoelectric conversion efficiency.
- The elegant arc lines demonstrate the product's affinity and simplicity. The product's high-strength aluminum alloy and intelligent sensors convey a sense of futuristic technology.
- The product is made of highly durable, impact-resistant engineering plastics and a lightweight aluminum alloy with good weather and corrosion resistance, making it suitable for a wider range of applications.
- The energy storage module adopts high rate Li-ion phosphate battery core, with longer cycle time, higher safety and environmental protection, which extends the service life of the product.

The solar panel adopts ETFE lamination process, so the EVA layer is densely covered with a honeycomb structure with light trapping effect, which can effectively reduce light reflection and improve power generation efficiency.
