Explanation:

The biggest advantage of solar cookers is their eco-friendliness. By using one, you can let go of your dependence on gas or electricity. You can also maintain better air quality indoors, reduce carbon monoxide emissions, enjoy cooler temperatures indoors, and conserve more fuel by reducing the need for air conditioning.

Solar cooking is free once you have the cooker itself. To operate

Cooking with solar cookers obviously requires sunlight, which makes it difficult to use during winter months and on rainy days. Cooking also takes a significantly longer time compared to conventional methods. Users must schedule their cooking time and maximize the use of sunlight. As a result, preparation must start early in the morning so that the food can be placed in the cooker by noon.

Solar cookers are not as efficient at retaining heat as conventional cooking devices. Factors such as wind, rain, and snow can seriously hinder operation, and in such weather conditions, even after the food is cooked, it will lose its warmth very quickly. For most homes, using only a solar cooker is inadvisable. You will need a backup appliance that operates on gas or electricity when weather is unfavorable or whenever the sun is hidden.
