Abstract: The present invention relates to a heat storage system (2) comprising a storage space (20), a heat storage medium in the storage space (20), and an extraction device (26) for extracting heat from the heat storage medium, the extraction device (26) comprising a first solid body arrangement (28) contacting the heat storage medium. The extraction device (26) further comprises a second solid body arrangement (30), wherein a solid body contact between the first solid body arrangement (28) and the second solid body arrangement (30) can be modified by increasing or decreasing a heat flow from the first solid body arrangement (28) to the second solid body arrangement (30). The present invention further relates to a method for storing and extracting heat.
