Advancements and global perspectives in solar cooking technology: A comprehensive review

In low-income societies, domestic cooking is the most immediate and fundamental use of energy. The need to create sources of renewable energy has increased with the global species and as natural resources have been depleted. There is an availability of free, clean renewable radiation that may be used for cookery. Energy-intensive activities like cooking are fundamental to human survival. Cooking utilizing polluting and hazardous fuels like wood and cattle manure is a widespread problem across the world. During the last several decades, considerable improvements have been made to solar-powered cookery. Although many different solar cookers are available all over the world, only a few were put to use. The latest innovations in solar cookery are the subject of this article. The established solar cookers are outlined in depth in the overview of solar cooking technology. Recent advancements in sunlight cooking technology, as well as its constituents as well as heat transmission properties, are the topic of this article. The efficiency of solar cookers, particularly boxed types, has been enhanced by numerous geometric adjustments throughout time. Efficiency improvements may be attributed to the utilization of mirrors as well as transparency insulating material. Using additional technology in the cooking process has thermal as well as financial benefits. To gain socioeconomic support, more effective policies are needed. Improving the efficiency, cost-effectiveness, and practicality of solar cooking innovation enables a methodical approach to research and development.
