The article presents the results of the energy analysis of a hybrid air conditioning system in Cuban hotels. Calculating an air conditioning system for solar assisted interconnected in series with a compression system under existing steam thermodynamic principles' governing this technology and the help of mathematical tools absorption was made. Calculation methodologies as the method of curves f -chart for solar contribution were employed, using statistical weather data and energy data of the case study Gran Caribe Jagua of Cienfuegos, Cuba. The results demonstrate that the use of these systems, complementing the central chilled water for air conditioning (chiller) system is an alternative to reduce energy consumption and the potential direct and indirect environmental impact.

Keywords : absorption cooling; chiller; solar cooling.
