System 1 consists of a bifacial photovoltaic (BiPV) plant, multi-effect distillation (MED) desalination unit and, proton exchange membrane (PEM) electrolyzer. Systems 2 and 3 additionally consist of the copper chlorine (Cu-Cl) thermochemical hydrogen production cycle integrated with a concentrated solar power (CSP) and supercritical geothermal systems, respectively. Electricity, freshwater, hydrogen, and space heating are produced as useful outputs for the communities in Gokcebayir in Turkey, Geyser in the United States, and Shinozaki in Japan. All of the proposed systems are designed, modeled, and analyzed with hourly sensitive annual simulations. According to the results, the highest overall energy efficiency is calculated for system 2 as 27.4%, and the highest overall exergy efficiency is calculated for system 3 as 18.6%.
