Beneath the glass ceramic surface sit copper coils that create an electric current that alternatingly flows through. When an induction-compatible pot is placed on the top of the cooker, the coils sense the magnetic base and generate heat directly into the pot or pan itself. This is much more efficient than traditional gas hobs and is more energy efficient as well. The glass-ceramic surface is cool to the touch and is also easy to clean.
