ABSTRACT The pursuit of sustainable energy solutions is crucial in meeting global development goals (SDGs). This experimental study explores enhancing a box‐type solar cooker's thermal performance through the integration hybrid nano‐enhanced phase change material (PCM). Specifically, multi‐walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and silicon oxide (SiO 2 ) nanoparticles were incorporated into PCM at 2% concentration, with 1% each MWCNT SiO . nano‐PCM was meticulously prepared using ultrasonication to ensure optimal dispersion homogeneity. innovative approach significantly improved efficiency, achieving peak temperature 128.9°C, cooking power 47.6 W, an average efficiency 28.5%, 6.2%. Notably, time halved, from 36.3 min just 18 min, demonstrating ultrafast capabilities cooker. These findings underscore potential MWCNT/SiO revolutionizing technology, offering cost‐effective, environmentally friendly, highly efficient solution for harvesting.
