In the continuing effort to improve the lives of natives in under developed countries and decrease deforestation the Danish Company Pesitho has developed the ECOCA “Life in a Box”. When connected to a solar panel the unit stores energy in a built in battery and serves multiple functions. Its heating element provides enough energy to allow the cooking of most meals by the family without the need for firewood. This directly decreases deforestation, reduces the labor required for wood gathering, saves money the family would spend buying fuel and eliminates the health hazards from wood burning.
