The invention relates to a cooling device 1, in particular a freezer 2, having a closable cooling space 3, an electrically operated cooling circuit, and preferably a cold accumulator 4, wherein the at least one closable cooling space 3 and the cold accumulator 4 can be cooled by the electrically operated cooling circuit. The invention is characterized in that the cooling device has a current distributor 5 for distributing electric power of at least one regenerative current source 6 to an electrically operated cooling circuit of the cooling device 1 and to at least one further electric consumer 7. Moreover, the current distributor 5 has an automatic control with an arithmetic unit 23, a memory 24 as well as a priority logic. The priority logic in case of lacking electric power of the at least one regenerative current source 6 first of all shall supply the electrically operated cooling circuit of the cooling device 1 with current.
