Development of solar community dish cookers

Based on very encouraging experiences with SK-14 cookers, Prof. Ajay Chandak designed solar community cookers of 2.0 m and 2.3 m diametres. After removing few teething problems, a number of agencies were trained to manufacture these community solar cookers. Because of the huge cost advantage and simplicity in operation, these community cookers are gaining popularity in the private sector as well as in other organizations.
