electric cooker & solar energy

kateok

does anyone with an 'everhot' electric cooker have solar panels installled and operating? Is it successful?

Hi

I suppose that it would be one way of ensuring that the majority of generated electricity is consumed in your own home ..... :rotfl:

If you're looking at solar pv to cover the daytime background requirement of one of these you'd need a barn sized roof, mighty deep pockets and probably a couple of trips to a therapist .... probably better to think more towards a standard sized solar pv array being capable of powering a slow cooker .....

If you already have the cooker, of course, the pv will help on the bills (a little), but I personally wouldn't consider looking at pv and the cooker as an eco package ..... beware companies attempting to jump onto the solar pv/eco bandwagon ....
