Abstract

The scarcity of LPG gas that often occurs in urban areas has become a serious challenge for Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs). This condition causes an increase in operational costs and creates uncertainty in energy supply, thus directly impacting business continuity. This community service aims to}overcome these problems by introducing artificial natural gas technology as a sustainable alternative solution. The main problem raised is the high dependence of MSMEs on LPG gas, while its availability is increasingly limited amid increasing demand. The methods used in this community service activity include observation of the energy needs of MSME actors, application of biogas technology to produce artificial natural gas, and technical training on how to operate and maintain the system. Activities are carried out through a participatory approach to ensure understanding and active involvement of the target community. The results of the community service show that the use of artificial natural gas can significantly reduce dependence on LPG, reduce energy costs, and increase the sustainability and operational efficiency of MSMEs. The conclusion of this service is that the application of artificial natural gas technology not only helps overcome the scarcity of LPG, but also makes a real contribution to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), especially goals 7 (Affordable and Clean Energy), 8 (Decent Work and Economic Growth), and 13 (Addressing Climate Change).

Abstract

This research aims to explore the impact of technology training on increasing the productivity of micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs), focusing on local artisans. The Partial Least Squares structural analysis method (PLS-SEM) tests the proposed hypothesis based on survey data from MSMEs participating in digital training programs. The research results show that active participation in technology training programs significantly increases the application of technology in MSME business operations. Applying this technology will then have a positive impact on improving the productivity of MSMEs. Additionally, consistency in construct measurement, such as reliability and validity, is vital in explaining variation in the dependent variable. These findings provide an essential contribution to understanding the role of technology in increasing the productivity of MSMEs and highlight the importance of consistency in construct measurement in the context of this research.
