Gujarat has first solar Crematorium in world. It uses very large mirrors. See link.
Well that was my first thought. A kind of Logan' Run
Vaporization, but outside. And the enormous mirrors provide their own advertizing. But the thing is baked.
So a more discrete Crematorium like a toaster
on steroids powered by photovoltaics is proposed. Maybe at an abandoned sanitarium in a sunny place.
Maybe... Bake some bread or something when business is slow. Use different pans. Who wants a human sized loaf of bread? Just for the staff of course, so no one gets grossed out.

Sigh they may have even beaten France to this invention. [popbottle, Sep 11 2014]

You just want to sneak back in with a solar powered "flying toaster" crematorium/747 for the jet set as soon as I delete it. I bet. |

no, that would result in partially cremated body parts being blown across an airport. Amusing, but impractical. |

It appears that Aeroflot have significant Prior Art in that rather limited
field of endeavour. |

Quite right, FOD is no fun; just ask Air France ... |

As to the idea, it might be more effective to use photovoltaic-derived
electrolysis of water to produce oxygen and hydrogen, then use
carefully controlled mixtures (giving high temperatures, and reducing
or oxidising atmospheres as appropriate) during cremation. |
