In addition to advances in fin design and compressor and motor efficiency and materials, there’s also the option to use things like heat pumps instead of traditional compressor based ac systems. They tend to be more efficient or for the same size to produce more cold air for the same electricity.
Due to the fact that a heat pump moves heat and it is not a unidirectional process like a traditional compressor system is, heat pump air conditioning systems can be both heaters and coolers at about the same electrical efficiency.
No I didn’t use an llm and yes a heat pump does use a condenser or a compressor but it’s not the same as a Freon based compressor system.
Yes, heat pumps use probably a Freon based refrigerant but they operate in a slightly different manner.
