As air conditioning, but there are other solutions! Ice has neigh-infinite charge/discharge cycles and big institutions have been doing this for years. If your "campus" is more than a few hundred tons of AC it's probably cooled by ice.
It's not been terribly economical to do this at a small scale but as solar gets cheaper and batteries don't there are people working on the problem.
