title: 'Solar box cooker research project'
description: 'The primary goal of this Appropriate Technology project is to consolidate existing information on solar cooking, as well as evaluate materials and design techniques utilized for the construction of widely used solar box cooker models. Although hundreds of innovative solar cooker designs have been invented including the popular parabolic and panel cookers, the solar box cooker is given the widest consideration due to its widespread global usage, particularly in the developing world. See The solar cooking archive wiki for exhaustive details  Most of the content from this page has been moved to solar cooker leaving mainly the design of the box solar cooker.'
