Cooling-- moving heat from one place to another-- doesn't need to be so energy intensive. And it doesn't necessarily require active energy input. Anything that just improves vertical mixing will cool the surface water.
E.g. the Salter Sink is a clever passive tube and valve arrangement that uses wave action to defeat thermoclines that otherwise prevent mixing.
