Solar cooking technologies provide a zero emission, low-cost, and sustainable alternative to biomass cooking methods that address both energy insecurity and climate change. These technologies can reduce the usage of biomass fuels, especially in regions with high solar irradiance, improving household energy security, enhancing community resilience, and contributing to national climate targets.

This Fact Sheet describes the technology in detail based on projects supported by the EU financed Climate Change and Security Programme implemented by the CTCN.
