Do people want air conditioning in Germany? I remember when I went to Frankfurt years ago, I walked into large, very nice buildings (bank buildings and the like) and they weren't air conditioned. Or at least they weren't to the standards here in the US. I asked someone I met and he said that people there don't like going in and out of cold temperatures back into hot temperatures. They think that makes them sick.
I know nothing more about German culture surrounding air conditioning, and even that knowledge is 30 years old.
But - there's a reason why people don't have it there. I doubt its about cost. Germany has the money. I'd first figure out how to overcome people's objections to it.
If it is about cold temperatures and the belief that they make you sick, maybe you could market a 'filtered air conditioner - designed to keep you comfortable AND reduce your chance of getting a cold.'
