The energy cost is rising rapidly and some work has been done using solar energy as the source of heat for cooking in an oven. There are limitations to the performance of solar oven due to limited access to sunlight at night and cloudy weather. To overcome this problem, a further study is made in utilizing electrical power to enhance the performance. The objective of this project is to analyze the electrical power requirement in a hybrid solar-electric oven. This study will analyse how much additional power is required to bring the performance of the oven up to several defined acceptable levels.
