Don't know where you are, but I'm in Melbourne, and we have plenty of AC for cooling. What we are lacking though is a proper summer where it's worth turning that on.

    Yes, and now on google maps, I can see that a lot of houses have solar panels. It was not the case when I grew up in Queensland 40+ degree heat, in a house made of plywood and fly screens in Nerang and the coolest place around was Pac Fair.
