If poorer countries are going to reduce their CO2, while still cooking food, then systems like this will presumably have a role to play:
3,500 kg of steam? That's how you measure steam?India already had the previous world's largest solar-powered cooking system, serving 15,000 pilgrims daily at the Tirumala temple in Andhra Pradesh. But now that one has been been one-upped, Taragana reports. The new system has been installed at the shrine of 19th century saint Sai Baba in Shridi and can feed up to 20,000 people per day:
The system generates some 3,500 kg of steam daily, which replaces on a yearly basis 100,000 kg of cooking gas.
Anyhow, it would be interesting to know whether the cost is worthwhile in terms of gas savings.
