Zusammenfassung:A refrigeration system is described having a circuit around which a refrigerant circulates. The circuit includes a compressor, a metering device, a first heat exchanger for exchanging heat between the refrigerant and a medium, and a second heat exchanger for exchanging heat between the refrigerant and a thermal store. The refrigeration system is operable in a first mode and a second mode. In the first mode, the metering device has a first restriction such that the medium is cooled at the first heat exchanger and the thermal store is heated at the second heat exchanger. In the second mode, the metering device has a second, less restrictive restriction or is bypassed such that the medium is heated at the first heat exchanger and the thermal store is cooled at the second heat exchanger.
