How can I measure solar power/energy?
What kind of instrument/tool can I use to measure the amount of energy produced from a solar-powered oven/appliance? And what would the unit of measurement be? Volts? Watts?

Your solar appliance is not producing energy. You can calculate the amount of energy you need to add to a liter of water to raise it one degree C. But a solar oven is not linear. That one degree of temperature rise is much easier to accomplish at 25C than at 80C. To do a project on energy, you need to learn at least the basics of energy.
