Basically, it's the opposite of a water heater. When you have extra energy, you freeze water. When you don't have any extra energy, the ice you made keeps your food cold. How you freeze the water doesn't matter. Most efficiently is a heat pump like a normal fridge, though.
To make ice I'll need a heat pump ye. But I like your thinking! I have much more freezer space than fridge space. This should work!
