the rolling solar kitchen

about one week ago, a new mobile solar kitchen has been presented to the
public by the group ulog. it is a car trailer with solar (and gas-) cooking
facilities for up to 50 people! it also contains dishes, water and
everything you need in a kitchen. it's called the rolling solar kitchen (die
rollende sonnenkueche). the whole kitchen/trailer can be rented in
switzerland or southern germany for parties, fairs, and so on. the whole
trailer is very nicely built to have a 'professional touch'.

for solar cooking, there are two parabolic mirror cookers
('schaeffler-cookers') tracking the sun, one of them by a mechanical
clockwork, the other by solar cells and a little motor. each mirror
focuses on a fixed cooking place at the side of the trailer. so the cook
is working from inside the trailer (only the bottom half of the trailer is
solid, the upper half can be removed, except for a roof for shadowing.) the
two cookers are amazingly powerful: at least 800w each and the focal
temperature exceeds 600 degrees centigrade! we did pancakes 'in no time'.
