He mentions fridge/freezer - I'll just draw attention to this project[0] where the smart guy uses a chest freezer as a fridge with an external thermostat. It has better insulation and design (cool air stays in when open), so ends up much more efficient and can be run on minimal power. Just 90 seconds of run time per hour.
There are other ways to do this in mobile setups, or with inverters in any setup, using mini-freezers, simple electronics to turn the inverter on/off and a small panel. See /r/vandwellers[1].
