Amid the growing needs of the future population, it is difficult to maintain a balance between sustainability and development. In my humble opinion, sustainable goals should aim at fulfilling the needs of today as well as keeping in mind the requirements of future generations. A California-based company, Jackery, a pioneer in the solar generator industry seconds my thought.
The company is one of the world’s biggest manufacturers of outdoor solar utilities and has now come with a PV-powered tent to make your camping fun and sustainable. Dubbed the LightTent-AIR, the tent from Jackery is en route to reshape the future of camping. Jackery teased the tent at CES 2023 (which appears to be a prototype) and plans to launch it two years from now.
Jackery LightTent-AIR features solar panels that can generate up to 1,200W of power. The power is stored in the built-in electricity storage modules and can be used to power appliances and lights in the tent.
Secure and sustainable, the tent doubles as a camping hut and a solar power system. Made from waterproof and flame-retardant PVC-coated fabric, the LightTent-AIR exterior has heat-insulating properties and is easy to clean. As per the company’s press release, the flexible GaAs solar panels are fitted on the adjustable canopy, thus offering more outdoor living space.

The tent’s interior is quite spacious and can accommodate up to four people with ease. Designed to be self-supporting, the inflatable tent does not require any pole to poise itself. Overall, the tent offers a comfortable and cozy stay for camping enthusiasts.
Other than the inflatable tent, the company also announced a solar power generator, a portable wind-power generator, and a wheeled battery system, at the recently concluded CES.
