Saving the Worldwith Solar
Clean, green, portable solar generators are providing sustainable access to power
In a world where sustainable energy is an increasingly important priority, a company that harnesses sunshine holds immense appeal. And that is exactly what Jackery is doing. The California-born firm is taking the power of the sun’s rays to a global market through its range of portable solar energy products that offer self-sufficient power supplies on the go. Humans have always benefited from a connection to nature, and in modern life, this manifests through immersive adventure travel. Yet, just as we crave the ability to get away from it all by camping and outdoor experiences, so too do we desire the creature comforts bestowed by a reliable electricity supply.
From powering camp lights to charging communication devices—essential during emergencies such as inclement weather conditions or accidents and injury—electricity enables a host of modern conveniences. What could be better after a long day exploring, than whipping up a quick and tasty meal on an electric stove, or grabbing a perfectly chilled bottle of wine from a refrigerator and enjoying it in front of an uninterrupted sunset.

Jackery’s goal since forming in 2012 is to provide sustainable access to power on the go. In 2016, they launched the world’s first outdoor portable power station, and two years later, they broke new ground by pioneering portable solar panels.
They further pushed boundaries by integrating a portable power station and solar panels into a single unit, offering a seamless and convenient solution. The resulting Solar Generator series automatically generates electricity when exposed to sunlight. The stored electricity can then be utilized to power a wide range of equipment, from essential travel gear like camping lights, to work tools such as laptops, drones, and phones.
Jackery’s innovative work in the field of solar generators has been instrumental to their success, and they have since established themselves as a prominent brand and industry leader in sustainable outdoor living. Today, the company’s high-end Plus series is enabling adventure seekers to explore the outdoors without worrying about straying too far off the grid. For instance, the Jackery Solar Generator 2000 Plus’s pass-through feature offers users the unique convenience of being able to use standard household appliances while simultaneously recharging the generator’s batteries, while its solar panels are capable of producing more energy with less sunlight compared to the average industry standard.
Travel Sustainably
While some travelers prefer to relax and unwind on their holidays, an increasing number want something different. The rise of the adventure traveler—an explorer who wants to connect with nature and do it in a sustainable way—has led to a demand for new products that allow them to do so and also stay connected.
Jackery is tailoring its products to meet this shifting demand. Previously, the lack of reliable portable power supplies constrained would-be adventurers. Travelers would be limited to campsites that provide access to traditional power sources, or they’d need to harness energy from sources such as disposable batteries, notorious for their negative environmental impact. By utilizing high-efficiency solar generators, on-the-go adventures can reduce emissions, fuel consumption, and campsite fees. The extra freedom also allows them to support local economies, cultures, and communities by visiting lesser-known, and more remote destinations.
Jackery’s range of clean and green solar generators has won accolades such as being crowned the SEAL Sustainable Product Award winner at the SEAL Business Sustainability Awards 2023 for the Jackery Solar Generator 2000 Plus. Their commitment to the planet is further evident through its Low Carbon Living with Jackery Solar event, held in 2023 to promote energy conservation and environmental protection on
A Lending Hand
While portable power can help adventure enthusiasts embrace the unknown, solar generators serve another, perhaps more important, function. Mother Nature can be an unpredictable mistress, and deadly tornadoes and other adverse weather events like wildfires and hurricanes can devastate communities and cause severe power outages.
Jackery’s products are portable, and suitable for addressing different needs during different emergency scenarios. Power outages can hit any area and can last for days. It is important that homeowners have access to a reliable backup power supply.

Solar-powered generators are an invaluable tool during emergency and disaster situations. They provide a reliable power source when the traditional grid is down or unreliable, allowing people to stay safe and comfortable in times of crisis and providing peace of mind in an era where extreme weather events are becoming more common.
A portable power supply also becomes essential when accidents and emergencies occur during outdoor adventures. For example, if a member of your party becomes lost or sustains an injury, having charged devices is crucial for alerting rescue services and maintaining open lines of communication.
Through its Jackery Cares initiative, which has seen it partner with the International Rescue Committee (IRC) to donate hundreds of power units to disaster-hit communities, the company is hoping to change how people are able to cope during an emergency.
Amidst the growing importance of sustainable solutions, Jackery is powering a more fulfilling future. Their range of portable solar generators has transformed the way we connect with nature, empowering individuals and encouraging the adoption of a more self-sufficient lifestyle. With their commitment to clean energy and portable power, Jackery is poised to shape a greener future for outdoor enthusiasts and emergency preparedness.
