Making a Solar Cooker: Workshop by Vigyan Ashram

The E-Base promotes the use of renewable energy and addresses local issues through the application of successful solar products.

Workshops don’t get more interactive than actually teaching the students to build their school- a solar cooker!

The step-by-step process is best described through pictures and the bowl of rice cooked was the highlight of the workshop.

The students were also taught how to make their very own solar dryer using resources available around them. Cooking can’t get easier than this!
