SunFire Solutions

SunFire Solutions is the leading Solar Cooker promotion and development agency in Southern Africa for solar cooker technologies. SunFire Solutions is aimed at assisting Africans to integrate solar cookers into the social, environmental and cultural fabric of life.

Southern Africa enjoys the least access to grid electricity of any region on earth and thus conversely stands to gain the most from the introduction of high quality solar cooker technologies.

SunFire Solutions predominantly manufactures and supplies parabolic reflectors (or the SunFire Series) for clients in Southern Africa but has also sent solar cookers to the USA, Europe and Middle East and are prepared to send cookers wherever there is need.

Our range also includes high quality box cookers and the Papillion for larger feeding schemes, we hope to introduce the Scheffler model at the earliest possible opportunity (need a minimum of 200 mouths on a daily basis to justify building one).

Phase 2 of SunFire Solutions flag ship project completed in December 2006 saw 80 SunFire14's installed in a Zulu village (Masihambisane) near Pietermaritzburg as part of an off grid electrification project.

This project aims to convince the South Africa, Botswana and Lesotho governments to include solar cooker technologies in all communities reliant on fossil fuels to meet their basic cooking needs.

This is the first project of its kind in the region and we hope it will establish and highlight beyond a doubt solar cookers potential beneficial role to the region. SunFire Solutions is also involved in the formation of a regional network under the umbrella "Solar Cookers For Africa" aimed at assisting the Continents decision makers to use solar cookers in natural disaster or refugee situations

We are also looking into the CDM mechanism to attract local governments to invest in and so speed up the role out needed to reach the estimted 240 Million people still reliant on coal, parafin or firewood for their basic daily needs.
