Bluetti has taken a bold step into the future of off-grid energy solutions with the launch of the Pioneer Na, the world’s first portable power station powered by sodium-ion (Na-ion) battery technology. Unveiled at IFA 2025, this innovative power station is designed with one particular strength in mind: extreme cold weather performance. For adventurers, emergency responders, and eco-conscious users, the Pioneer Na opens up new possibilities, offering reliable power where traditional systems struggle to perform.
What sets the Pioneer Na apart is its ability to operate in temperatures as low as -25 degrees Celsius (-13 degrees Fahrenheit) and charge even in -15 degrees Celsius (5 degrees Fahrenheit). This is a remarkable improvement over traditional lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries, which generally struggle to charge below freezing temperatures.
Many LFP models require ambient temperatures above 0 degrees Celsius (32 degrees Fahrenheit) just to charge, and they often stop functioning in cold environments around -20 degrees Celsius (-4 degrees Fahrenheit). Thanks to the sodium-ion chemistry, Bluetti’s new device overcomes this limitation, giving users dependable energy during extreme winter expeditions or critical power needs in harsh climates.
At the heart of the Pioneer Na is a 900Wh sodium-ion battery. While sodium-ion batteries typically have lower energy density than their LFP counterparts, resulting in a bulkier and heavier design, the Pioneer Na compensates with remarkable longevity. It offers over 4,000 charge cycles, which means more than ten years of daily use while retaining around 70 percent of its original capacity. Sodium itself is abundant and inexpensive, reducing the environmental and ethical concerns linked to cobalt and lithium mining. The device weighs around 16 kilograms, making it somewhat heavier than other models, but still manageable for most outdoor uses.

The power station delivers a solid 1,500W of continuous output, enough to run household appliances, outdoor tools, and camping gear. It also supports up to 500W of solar input, promoting sustainable, off-grid recharging. Though not as compact as some lithium-based rivals, the Pioneer Na strikes a careful balance between capacity, portability, and eco-friendliness. It is particularly aimed at users who operate in cold regions where performance consistency is vital.
While visitors at IFA 2025 get to see this device in Berlin as of now, Bluetti plans to launch the Pioneer Na globally on October 15, 2025. While the exact price hasn’t been revealed, it is expected to position itself as a premium product within the portable power station market. For those seeking durability, sustainability, and power reliability in extreme environments, the Bluetti Pioneer Na power station represents a smart and forward-thinking investment.
