The US Navy is getting cool by using solar energy.

According to GreenCore Technology, it is installing its solar air conditioners at a remote laboratory site operated by the Naval Research Laboratories (NRL). The company will also install ten GreenCore-specified 170 Watt/35 volt photovoltaic solar panels, along with peripheral solar related equipment.

The green ACs will operate grid-free for 24 hours/day, 365 days/year. During certain seasons (such as sunless days), they will operate in hybrid mode using batteries.
