From what I can gather you’ll definitely need a solar oven

Background Knowledge

Hello.

This shall be an introduction to solar cooking, based on the knowledge i have now.

Solar cooking is basically a form of cooking that relies onthe sun’s infra-red rays, and does not use gas or charcoal. That is why it is considered to be more eco-friendly, as renewable energy is used instead of non-renewable energy like gas or charcoal. By using sun rays for cooking, less greenhouse gases are emitted.

Jen Yi and Jessica will be working on the advantages, equipment and feasibility of solar cooking in the near future, and Jia Yun and Pei Ling will be working on the principles behind solar cooking.

Watch for more updates.

Solar Cooking

Hello!

 This shall be an introduction to solar cooking, based on the stuff in my brain

 Solar cooking is basically an eco-friendly form of cooking, as it does not use gas or charcoal. The energy needed for cooking comes directly from the sun.

Solar cookers can be made or bought, but the main aim of these solar cookers is to focus the sun’s infra-red rays onto the food that is to be cooked.

What’s Sizzling?

Hello!

We are a group of 4 students who are out to investigate how solar energy can be harnessed in cooking, the equipment used, to find out the physics principles behind solar cooking, to find out the advantages of solar cooking, and to see if it is feasible for preparation of daily meals.
