SOLAR COOKERS INTERNATIONAL “I’d put my money on the sun and solar energy. What a source of power! I hope we don’t have to wait ‘til oil and coal run out before we tackle that.” Thomas Edison

SOLAR COOKERS INTERNATIONAL Benefits of Solar Cooking Generates no air pollution Generates no greenhouse gases Produces no smoke Eliminates fire dangers Leslie baking cakes in S. California

SOLAR COOKERS INTERNATIONAL More Benefits of Solar Cooking Moving cooking outside reduces heat buildup in home ~44% of household energy consumption in U.S. goes to heating/cooling ~5% for cooking

SOLAR COOKERS INTERNATIONAL More Benefits of Solar Cooking Cooks foods slowly and thoroughly Preserves nutrients Foods will not burn Pots are easy to clean; less clean water is needed Use for canning vegetables Use for dried fruit Kill insects in dry grains

SOLAR COOKERS INTERNATIONAL Limitations of Solar Cooking A clear sky is optimal; cloudy days may require use of other fuel Lifestyle adjustments are required –Change in timing of meals and work –Hot food storage –Cooking outside –Possible changes in taste & texture of food

SOLAR COOKERS INTERNATIONAL The basic principles - C.A.R.E.S. C ollect the light A bsorb the light R etain the heat E ase and Efficiency S afety

SOLAR COOKERS INTERNATIONAL Shiny reflectors capture extra sunlight Fuel: Sunlight Dark surfaces converts sunlight to heat energy Heat trap retains the heat HOW THE COOKIT WORKS

SOLAR COOKERS INTERNATIONAL Approximate Cooking Times Estimate cooking times 2-3 times longer than conventional cooking methods, depending on: Distance from equator/season Time of day (shadow rule) Clouds/inclement weather Wind

SOLAR COOKERS INTERNATIONAL TYPES OF SOLAR COOKERS Box Parabolic Panel

SOLAR COOKERS INTERNATIONAL The CooKit: A Simple but Effective Solar Cooker

SOLAR COOKERS INTERNATIONAL Parabolic Cooker Highly focused light and high temperatures Cooks nearly as fast as a conventional oven Costly and complicated to make and use – have to turn frequently to follow the sun Potentially hazardous

SOLAR COOKERS INTERNATIONAL Solar Cookers International (SCI) A non profit humanitarian organization assisting communities to use the power of the sun to cook food and pasteurize water for the benefit of people and environments Office in Sacramento Project Areas: –Community Projects and Technical Assistance –Information Exchange –Advocacy –Educational Resources Developed CooKit and WAPI

SOLAR COOKERS INTERNATIONAL Two Billion People rely on Wood for daily cooking fuel

SOLAR COOKERS INTERNATIONAL

FACTS 1/3 –Part of humanity cooking over wood fires 1/3 –Part of humanity without safe drinking water 1 TON –Average amount of wood saved per year by a solar cooker 50% –Lung disease deaths due to indoor smoke from cooking 50,000 –Daily deaths of children from waterborne diseases 1.8 TONS –Amount of CO 2 reduced per year with saved wood

SOLAR COOKERS INTERNATIONAL Solar Water Pasteurization Heating water to 65°C (149°F) in a solar cooker will pasteurize the water and kill disease causing microbes
