Electric cost and solar option

With my life expectancy in mind (I am 80) a complete solar electric system would not financially repay for itself in consumption.
So I am studying up on solar powered air conditioners and if it's financially feasible.
According to my  electric usage chart, during the few cooler months of the year, maximum bill is under 1,000āļŋ.  Anything above that is cost going toward cooling. During a year that could average 15,000āļŋ. 

Of course as far as solar air conditioning products are concerned, you have to sort through the junk and find something cost efficient. Also looking at DC systems used mostly for mobile homes, on boats and camping

April, May, June, and July appear to be the hottest months

Sakon Nakhon Dusit Hotel FOR SALE

Let's just say, was a bit surprised to see that. Stayed in the hotel for a few weeks when I first came to town in 2003. Always enjoyed the restaurant, but had not visited in a few years

Proceed with caution

Recent economic headlines have not been very promising. 
Rice sales dow, competition up, tourism down, factory production down.
The IMF article suggests the Thai government is planning to spend more money to stimulate the economy
Not mentioned in the article I've noticed a hefty increase of prices at the grocery stores
