Abstract

This study aims to determine the effect of using 3 kg LPG on the production efficiency of micro-enterprises located on Jalan Boulevard 2, Sindulang, Manado City. The use of 3 kg LPG represents an energy-related production factor that supports the smooth operation of production processes, particularly for micro-enterprises in the culinary sector. This is a quantitative study employing an associative approach. Data collection was conducted through observation and the distribution of questionnaires to micro-enterprise owners on Jalan Boulevard 2, Sindulang, Manado City. While the exact population size was unknown, a sample of 43 respondents was selected using Cochran's formula and a non-probability sampling technique—specifically, purposive sampling. Data analysis was performed using the Structural Equation Modeling–Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS) method with the aid of SmartPLS 4 software. The results indicate that the use of 3 kg LPG has a positive and significant effect on production efficiency. This is evidenced by a path coefficient of 0.682, a T-statistic of 9.751, and a P-value of 0.000. The R-square value of 0.466 indicates that the use of 3 kg LPG explains 46.6% of the variance in production efficiency, while the remaining 53.4% ​​is explained by factors outside the research model. These findings demonstrate that the more optimally 3 kg LPG is utilized in production activities, the higher the production efficiency micro-enterprise owners can achieve.
