Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	The system (1) comprises a natural gas feed (3) and a natural gas liquefaction facility (7) having a refrigeration circuit comprising: a compressor (47) adapted to compress at least one refrigerant fluid; a driver (31) adapted to drive the compressor (47); and a heat exchanger (17) adapted to receive a flow of natural gas (NG) from the natural gas feed (3) and remove heat therefrom by heat exchange against the refrigerant fluid. A heat pump (23) collects low-temperature thermal energy rejected from the natural gas liquefaction facility (7) and transfers the collected thermal energy to a thermal energy storage system at a higher temperature. The system (1) further comprises a processing facility (5; 41) powered by thermal energy from the thermal energy storage system (21).
