Abstract

Based on observed global trends, the use of solar cookers has proven to be a better, cheaper, healthier and more environmentally friendly source of energy for household cooking. This research work looked at the ecological, economical, social impacts and the benefits of adopting solar cooking in Mubi metropolis of Adamawa state. Feasibility studies carried out by the group shows that Mubi geographical location makes it viable for the adoption of solar cooking. An investigation conducted by the group also shows that if solar cooking is adopted, each solar stove used in Mubi can save one (1) tone off fire wood annually; about N4.7million can be saved daily (i.e. N1.7 billion annually) in addition to several health and social benefits.
