Hello, If I remember right, from my highschool days soooo long ago, my then girlie friend had a brand new '93 Saab 900 Turbo, that even when the engine was off the A/C would still work as long as the ignition was on. So, maybe somewhere there is an automotive A/C compressor that is totally electric and all that would have to be done is beef up the electrical system to handle a 12v compressor and remove the belt drive system.
