It is indeed, but the refrigeration needed would seem cumbersome for most applications.

Not really, I've seen these units in the middle of the mountains sitting right next to a windfarm. About as inaccessible as it gets and yet they were there and humming along. Note that there is plenty of energy available for the refrigeration and that those units run for years unattended. Occasionally you need to top off the refrigeration gear but that's once every two years or so, a bit more involved than your average HVAC setup but not that much more involved.
