However, it is estimated that 14 panels of solar power are necessary for running an air conditioner alone, without powering anything else in a house.

==Global warming claims==
−
[[Liberal]]s often point to solar power as a way to "solve" [[global warming]]. This has several problems. Other than the fact that [[Counterexamples to Global Warming|the claim of global warming is dubious]], solar power is not very efficient, giving much less energy than oil. Many liberals have tried to force solar power onto many areas, despite the fact that it would be very costly and would be much more inefficient than oil, for example.

Solar power can run air conditioning, both central air and window units. However, it is estimated that 14 panels of solar power are necessary for running an air conditioner alone, without powering anything else in a house.
