| Summary: | In this proposed study, hydrogen and power generation by low-temperature geothermal energy supported Kalina cycle is thermodynamically investigated with an energy and exergy efficiencies approaches. This combined plant includes a Kalina cycle and a PEM electrolysis for power and hydrogen generation. The key purpose of this paper is to generate power and hydrogen in an environmentally benign way. Furthermore, environmental impact analysis is discussed to investigate the carbon dioxide emission that will be released if the power and amount of hydrogen obtained are produced with natural gas. As coming to the examination results, the energy and exergy performance of the overall plant 7.94% and 37.64%, respectively. Also, the net power and hydrogen production rates are computed as 100.5 kW and 0.0001191 kgs-1.
