This paper presents design and development of a domestic solar box cooker which works on principle of solar energy concentrate, absorb and retention within box to achieve suitable temperature for cooking various types of meals. Solar box cooker is a sustainable cooking alternatives in area where abundant solar energy available. Design process involved selecting material for box, insulation, reflecting mirror and choosing dimension for proper heat collection and absorption. Main aim of development of a domestic solar cooker is simple to operate and maintain. It is a sustainable, economical, and socially beneficial solution for cooking food. Testing was carried out to record ambient temperature and different temperature of parts in solar box cooker at hot sunny day. Results show device capacity to rise and sustain temperature within box during day time. Overall developed solar cooker is alternative solution to fire wood and gas cooking in hot sunny time. Consequently it reduces carbon. Finally one can say it is environment friendly. Key Words: solar cooker, solar oven, solar box cooker, renewable energy cooking.
