I’m trying to get an idea of whether it would be viable for us to upgrade our PV and switch from propane to electric for cooking.

Is anyone else cooking on PV-powered electric, and do you have a rough estimate of the kWh used for it?

    I have a 1 element induction cooktop with a 2000 W rating, so roughly 2 kWh at max setting, but I think it is really fast as it doesn’t waste energy heating the air around it. Breakfast would take 10min to set up on propane, but now if I doze off, I might burn my food

    edit: If you want, you could also build your own solar stove if it makes sense in your region
