Air conditioning in remote areas can be especially challenging. The main reason is typical window air conditioners use a tremendous amount of power. Fortunately, there are very efficient evaporative and ice cooled air conditioning products that use much less power for the amount of cooling effect they produce.
During August in hot areas the heat index is regularly over 110°F. This means that air conditioning is not just a comfort issue. It is a health issue. A realistic goal for remote air conditioning is to get the heat index down to 80°F in daytime. Not super comfortable but you probably won't die.
