Can a small scale wind generator power enough batteries to power a 5 ton air conditioner? And if it can, how large of a battery bank would I need, and would a 220 power converter be good enough.

gee, kind’a hard to tell.
is there any wind?
how strong?
all day?
or just part of the day?
what do you consider “a small scale wind generator”?
does your AC use 110 or 220 power?
(it might uses both. although 5 ton isn’t all that large.)
where are you going to put this?
how are you going to anchor it?
is it allowed where you live?
are you going to have an alternate power source for when there is no wind?
in which case, have you looked at what it takes to hook up to the power grid?
maybe you ought to talk to someone around where you live about this.
