The promotion of the utilization of renewable energy is being strongly demanded in order to prevent the progression of climate change due to the increase in greenhouse gas emissions. In this paper, a new generator which utilizes carbon dioxide (CO_2) gas hydrate is proposed. This generator is driven by a small-temperature difference of a heat source at near room temperature and it discharges no exhaust gases at all. In this paper, we model the proposed generator and report the power generation efficiency characteristics and the energy storage characteristics based on the relationship between the performance of the heat exchanger and the power loss by the heat medium circulation.
