One of the topics I have seen little of is how can we cool living spaces
in high heat tropical environments
here in Florida that is one of the biggest issues we face
All air conditioning (cooling) equipment uses energy to work, it's just that now we use electricity. Instead we can use solar hot water. I have the link to this company after finding them through the Solar Decathlon, Rotartica http://www.rotartica.com/ . They build such chillers. I've also seen equipment that will, at night when electricity is cheap, cools a large block of something and then pushes the energy in house back into it during the day.
