In the winter, a fridge takes warm air from inside the house which has been warmed by your heater, and cools it off again.
In the summer, a fridge vents hot air into a house which you're trying to cool down with air conditioning.
Why not position your fridge next to an outside wall, and use a vent/duct leading outdoors to either take in or vent out air (depending on the season) to save electricity? Or you could have a 2nd, tiny refrigerator door which leads outside, so Amazon grocery delivery can place food directly into the fridge. This could also allow you to sit in the fridge with the tiny door open to cool yourself off
