Photovoltaic+Electric+Cooking

Please see our updated website

Presently traditional “3 stone fires” consume resources, tax families’ time and financial resources, produce CO 2  and emit other pollutants. These biomass fires cause deforestation and the related indoor air pollution is responsible for an estimated 4 million deaths annually - more than malaria and AIDS combined. Our Photovoltaic-electric cooking technology is briefly described in this [|video]  from a conference of [|Solar Cookers International]  and our [|research group]  is further developing the technology while groups of students from appropriate technology classes  are exploring opportunities to collaboratively introduce these technologies at the grass roots level with [|AidAfrica]  in Uganda, as well as in Rwanda  and <span style="background-color: #fffefa; color: #6f6345; font-family: 'Open Sans','Trebuchet MS',Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 15px;">Ghana <span style="background-color: #fffefa; color: #323232; font-family: 'Open Sans','Trebuchet MS',Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 15px;">.
