The SolSource solar cooker was designed by a beautiful doctor from Harvard University and was inspired by Tibetan herder families. This solar cooker not only solves the problem of soot particles in Tibetan households through its zero-emission design, but also provides lighting at night through energy storage.
SolSource solar cooker can heat 1 liter of water in 10 minutes, and also provides you with a completely clean energy solar barbecue experience. ↓↓↓
SolSource is shaped like a satellite dish and generates heat by reflecting sunlight onto reflective panels at the base of the black cookware. ↓↓↓
The "thermoelectric module" is an add-on component of SolSource. When connected to it, solar power can be generated, with a power generation capacity of about 11 watts. It can be directly used during the day Powers electrical appliances and can also charge batteries to provide lighting and power at night. ↓↓↓
The designer is Dr. Catlin Powers With another American, Dr. Scot Frank. Bowles teaches sustainable technology at Harvard. ↓↓↓
Inspired by a Tibetan family. A few years ago When Dr. Bowles was studying climate change in Qinghai Province, China, he was once invited to the home of a local Tibetan herdsman. Dr. Bowles said, "I brought an air monitor with me, so I did some tests and found that inside the tent The air pollution level in Beijing is 10 times that of Beijing. ” ↓↓↓
SolSource adopts a zero-emission design to reduce the impact of soot particles andGood news for greenhouse gas-troubled herdsmen. SolSources target audience is residents of Chinas farming and pastoral areas, and with the cooperation of Chinas pastoralist communities, Dr. Powers tested dozens of models before finalizing the design. ↓↓↓
SolSource also unexpectedly gained a new market - the United States. It is sought after by green technology fans, wilderness survival experts and even mainstream barbecue enthusiasts. The official price is US$399. In addition, consumers in 29 countries have purchased Solsource products. ↓↓↓
In 2010, Dr. Bowers transformed from a researcher to an entrepreneur and founded the social enterprise One Earth Designs. In 2012, he received funding from investors to start producing solar cookers. ↓↓↓
Since the cost of shipping small quantities was too high, One Earth Designs raised funds through a Kickstarter campaign, loaded 3 containers, and sent the goods to different distribution centers. ↓↓↓
