Last Sunday, we came together once again to see our solar cooker in action, reflect on what we’ve learned so far, and brainstorm the next steps in our ongoing research project. It was a great mix of hands-on testing, technical discussions – and shared moments.
Despite the sometimes unpredictable August weather in Luxembourg (we got lucky with the sun ☀️😅), we managed to cook a meal, enjoy the results, and exchange ideas on how to optimize performance, tracking mechanisms, and heat transfer.
🍽️ Key takeaway?
Engineering and sustainability go hand-in-hand – but it’s the human element that makes these projects truly meaningful. Sitting together, sharing a solar-cooked dish, and dreaming up improvements is what drives us forward.
🔬 What’s next?
> Testing alternative absorber Materials
> Improving reflector precision
> Collecting more performance data under varying conditions
Huge thanks to everyone who joined and contributed their insights & energy – especially Michel Guenther for pushing things forward!
