3 Insulation
The oven's walls and base are typically insulated, preventing heat
loss. This ensures that the trapped solar energy is efficiently
utilized for cooking.
Results and Discussion: The
Solar Oven in Action

Cooking Time
Solar ovens typically require longer cooking times than conventional
ovens, but they can achieve similar results, especially for slow-cooking
methods like stewing or baking.

Food Quality
Food cooked in solar ovens often retains more moisture and nutrients
compared to food cooked in conventional ovens, as the heat is
distributed more evenly.

Environmental Impact
Solar ovens offer a significant environmental benefit, reducing reliance
on fossil fuels and greenhouse gas emissions. They promote a
sustainable lifestyle and contribute to a cleaner planet.
