For off‑grid cabins with limited PV, does induction cooking pencil out?

Induction cooking in off-grid cabins with small solar is doable, but your system needs to handle the initial power surge. It’s quick and efficient, yet power-hungry when in use. So, think about adding extra panels, batteries, or a generator. Often, for everyday cooking, propane or wood stoves are better options if your solar setup isn’t already strong.
Usually no
Induction cooking draws high peak power, so for small off-grid PV systems it can strain batteries and inverters unless you have ample storage and generation.
