Jackery, EcoFlow, and Bluetti are major players in the portable power station manufacturing industry. The trio has dominated the space for a long time and has developed a strong rivalry over the years. Who would lead the portable power station market has always been a bone of contention among them, but it now seems Jackery may have edged past its competition with the introduction of the Solar Mars Bot, a self-driving power station on wheels.
When I first saw Jackery’s portable power station, I mistook it for a lawn mower. A closer look left me surprised, as it wasn’t a robotic mower, but Solar Mars Bot, a portable power station Jackery teased at CES 2024. Two years on, the company has made some improvements to the concept and is now unveiling a significantly improved and more advanced version of the robot.
Following two years of R&D, Jackey has integrated AI-powered computer vision into the solar robot, allowing it to move on its own, track its user, and function almost continuously. Most importantly, the solar robot tracks sunlight, moving to wherever it needs to be to gather the maximum power. The solar robot comes with 300W solar panels that automatically unfold to capture sunlight and fold back when not in use, making storage much easier. The built-in panels harvest energy, store it onboard, and supply it wherever needed.
As per Jackery, the solar robot can automatically navigate back to the charging base when outdoor lighting is low or the battery runs low. Once charging is complete, the taillight turns green, signaling that the robot is fully powered. While Jackery has yet to reveal pricing or availability details, the Solar Mars Bot stands out as one of the highlights of CES 2026, combining robotics with renewable energy. Besides its autonomous robot, Jackery has also unveiled another rugged power station and solar gazebo, which we will cover in detail in the coming days.
