Exclusive Coverage of CES 2026: Jackery Unveils First Consumer-Grade "Solar Energy Storage Robot", Redefining the Physical Boundaries of Energy Autonomy

Back in 2024, when Jackery's concept machine of the "Solar-charged Mars Robot" was first unveiled at CES, it sparked a discussion across the ocean about the future form of energy.

Two years later, at CES 2026, when AI and embodied intelligence became the absolute stars in Las Vegas, Jackery, a brand of Shenzhen-based Jackery New Energy Co., Ltd., turned this concept into a reality - the Jackery Solar Mars Bot was officially launched and announced to have the real ability to be applied in scenarios. It presented for the first time the "cross - border symbiosis" of solar energy storage, AI, and robots, showing the world the latest practices of Chinese brands in the field of energy autonomy and providing a new solution for "embodied intelligence" and the form of household green electricity in the digital age.

01 "Species Evolution" of Energy Form: Not Just Mobility, but "Autonomy"

For a long time, the evolution logic of portable energy storage devices has been stuck in the parameter competition of "energy density" and "power". Although they have met the basic need for "off - grid power consumption", in essence, they are still "passive energy sources".

When facing today's increasingly automated intelligent devices, this traditional "people seeking power" model still has an efficiency gap from the ideal closed - loop of accessing energy in the "last mile".

The core value of Jackery's Solar Mars Bot lies in that by integrating AI robot technology, it enables solar energy storage devices to complete the "species evolution" from "passive" to "active", greatly expanding the boundaries and convenience of "energy autonomy" in real life.

This is not simply a "battery + wheels". In the on - site demonstration at CES, the Solar Mars Bot demonstrated its core "Move with the Sun" logic: relying on a high - precision dual - axis solar tracking system and an autonomous navigation algorithm, it no longer depends on human handling. Instead, like a sunflower, it can autonomously find the area with the best sunlight for energy replenishment and automatically navigate to the power - consuming end after being fully charged.

This is the world's first "consumer - grade solar energy storage robot" that has truly achieved scenario - based application. Through the integrated design of solar charging and storage, the Solar Mars Bot has built a "self - sufficient off - grid energy closed - loop". It has broken the efficiency bottleneck of traditional photovoltaic "fixed installation" and solved the pain point of the "passive energy replenishment" experience of traditional energy storage. From an industry perspective, this is the first time that energy hardware has had the autonomous awareness of "seeking energy".

02 The "Energy Mothership" of Embodied Intelligence: Making Up for the Shortcomings of the AI Industry

At this CES, embodied intelligence (Embodied AI), robotic dogs, and humanoid robots were in full bloom. These devices are becoming smarter, but their demand for continuous energy is also increasing exponentially. High - performance GPUs and servo motors have brought huge energy consumption challenges, resulting in the endurance ability of most robots still being limited, and their activity radius being firmly locked around the charging piles.

The emergence of the solar energy storage robot provides a new solution of a "mobile energy mothership". Jackery defines it as a "unified energy hub".

In practical application scenarios, the Solar Mars Bot has also shown strong adaptability:

• In the professional field, it can provide stable power supply for Starlink in field operations, solving the dual off - grid problems of "signal and power"; it can also provide relay - style wireless energy replenishment for robotic dogs and drones in emergency rescue and inspection operations.
• In daily life, it is the energy guardian of the family courtyard, the intelligent power center for outdoor camping, and can even provide continuous power for various household service robots.

This combination of "solar energy storage + robot" makes energy supply no longer a static "pile" but a dynamic "flow". It has unlocked the last shackle restricting the physical radius of embodied intelligence, allowing AI to truly venture into the wild.

03 The "Breakthrough Point" of Strategic Upgrade: From the "First Stock in Portable Energy Storage" to the "Global Solar Energy Storage Intelligent Ecosystem"

The release of the Jackery Solar Mars Bot marks that Jackery New Energy has officially completed the strategic upgrade from being the "first stock in portable energy storage" to the layout of the "all - around consumer solar energy storage strategy". What supports this leap is the "technical R & D and brand moat" that Jackery New Energy has built through more than a decade of in - depth development:

As an industry leader starting from Shenzhen, Jackery New Energy's service has covered more than 50 countries and regions around the world, with cumulative sales exceeding 6 million units, ranking among the top in the industry. It is based on this large global user base and the technical accumulation of more than 2,200 patents that Jackery New Energy has the confidence to progress from meeting the emergency needs of "people" to meeting the energy needs of "machines" and "systems".

With this as a fulcrum, Jackery New Energy has built four core sectors including portable solar energy storage, balcony solar energy storage, solar energy storage robots, and curved photovoltaic tiles. The formation of this complete matrix has not only accelerated the strategic coverage of all - around household green electricity solutions but also successfully occupied the upstream entrance of future IoT and AI energy infrastructure through the Jackery Solar Mars Bot.

Amid the hustle and bustle of CES 2026, the Jackery Solar Mars Bot may not be the device with the strongest computing power, but it is undoubtedly the most indispensable "energy cornerstone" in this round of AI transformation.

From this perspective, the scenario - based application of the solar energy storage robot may just be a prologue - in the next round of technological competition, "energy autonomy" will become a survival rule as important as "algorithm evolution". Enterprises like Jackery New Energy that have taken the lead in opening up the "energy autonomy" closed - loop will undoubtedly have the core say in the future intelligent ecosystem competition.
