Solar cooking is great to reduce the heat inside your house and therefore the energy costs associated with everyday cooking. It is ideal to use the solar oven on campouts, picnics and boating trips. No need to worry about "no burn" areas again. In case of long term power outages solar cooking can be a life saver.
