What is the Ecoca?
The ECOCA represents a versatile, self-sufficient residential cooking system powered by solar energy. It is a fully operational kitchen capable of supplying both sustenance and electricity for an entire rural family throughout the day. This system comprises an electric foundation incorporating a battery pack, an array of solar panels, and an exceptionally well-insulated cooking pot designed to keep food warm for extended periods.
Versatility:
The compact and lightweight design of the ECOCA allows for versatile installation and use in a variety of settings. This makes it exceptionally well-suited and valuable in locations such as refugee camps in African nations, where it empowers families residing there to cook their meals consistently, as well as in urban settings.
The solar panel-generated electricity stored in the battery is fully capable of meeting the typical cooking requirements of an entire family. To put it more precisely, this means that an average family comprising 5-7 members can prepare three meals daily, even during the evening hours.
Sustainability:
Moreover, the ECOCA incurs significantly lower financial and ecological expenses when contrasted with the yearly expenditures associated with similar electricity generation technologies like diesel generators.
Unlike cooking setups powered by diesel or wood, the ECOCA doesn’t emit harmful smoke or release CO2, making it a safe and environmentally friendly choice for indoor use. It operates entirely on solar energy, offering a sustainable and health-conscious alternative for households.
