TL;DR Jackery, a provider of solar power and backup solutions, is showcasing new products at CES 2026.

The lineup includes a Solar Gazebo, with solar panels replacing the roof tiles, integrated power outlet, and a built-in projection screen.

Besides the gazebo, Jackery is also announcing an autonomous robot that moves around chasing sunlight, follows you around, and serves as a portable power station.

The third product is a rugged power station that is meant for harsh weather and can deliver high power for your off-grid adventures.

Among the many renewable energy sources, solar never goes out of fashion. With the energy demand in the US expected to reach a record high, especially due to the steep increase in power requirements for AI data centers, it is in your best interest to invest in an alternative source of energy. Besides helping you reduce your power bills, solar equipment also serves as a backup in outages or natural disasters.

The rooftop holds solar panels with a combined power output of 2,000 watts and can deliver up to 10 kilowatt-hours of energy per day. These can be paired to Jackery’s home backup products, such as the Explorer 5000 Plus, to store the energy and serve as a source of power delivery during emergencies or moments of outages.
