Abstract

This study examines the effect of smart grid implementation on the integration of new renewable energy (NRE) in the Indonesian electricity system from the consumer's perspective. Using a qualitative approach, data were collected through interviews with five informants and analyzed with NVIVO software. The findings reveal that smart grids enhance renewable energy integration by improving energy efficiency, consumer participation, and environmental sustainability. However, challenges such as infrastructure readiness, affordability, and limited consumer awareness hinder adoption. Informants emphasized the need for government support, subsidies, and public education to accelerate implementation. This research highlights the critical role of consumers in achieving Indonesia's renewable energy targets and offers recommendations for stakeholders to foster a consumer-centric approach to smart grid deployment.

Abstract

This study explores the impact of Green Investment, Public Education, and Renewable Resources on Economic Prosperity in Indonesia. A quantitative analysis was conducted using a sample of 160 respondents, employing a Likert scale (1-5) and data analysis through Structural Equation Modeling - Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS). The results reveal significant positive relationships between all three independent variables (Green Investment, Public Education, Renewable Resources) and Economic Prosperity. Green Investment positively contributes to economic growth by fostering innovation and reducing environmental degradation. Public Education enhances human capital, driving productivity and economic development. Renewable Resources provide sustainable solutions for long-term energy security, job creation, and economic resilience. The study underscores the importance of integrated policies that promote sustainable investments, improve education systems, and expand the use of renewable resources to achieve long-term economic prosperity in Indonesia.

Abstract

Penelitian ini menyelidiki peran investasi hijau dalam memitigasi emisi gas rumah kaca dan meningkatkan efisiensi energi dalam industri otomotif di Jawa Barat. Melalui analisis kualitatif yang melibatkan wawancara, diskusi kelompok terarah, dan analisis dokumen, penelitian ini mengeksplorasi kondisi inisiatif investasi hijau saat ini, persepsi pemangku kepentingan, strategi yang digunakan oleh perusahaan otomotif, dan tantangan yang dihadapi oleh industri. Temuan menunjukkan adanya pergeseran positif menuju keberlanjutan, yang ditandai dengan adopsi teknologi ramah lingkungan, kebijakan pemerintah yang mendukung praktik-praktik ramah lingkungan, dan upaya kolaboratif di antara para pemangku kepentingan. Namun, kendala keuangan, hambatan teknologi, resistensi terhadap perubahan, dan ketidakpastian peraturan menjadi tantangan tersendiri. Strategi yang digunakan oleh perusahaan-perusahaan termasuk investasi penelitian dan pengembangan yang substansial, kolaborasi dan inisiatif berbagi pengetahuan, inovasi dalam proses manufaktur, dan praktik rantai pasokan yang berkelanjutan. Studi ini diakhiri dengan memberikan rekomendasi untuk meningkatkan insentif keuangan, penelitian dan pengembangan yang berkelanjutan, implementasi kebijakan yang konsisten, dan mendorong pergeseran budaya menuju keberlanjutan.

Abstract

Pemanfaatan limbah organik untuk energi terbarukan telah menjadi fokus intensif dalam penelitian keberlanjutan, dengan tujuan mengurangi penggunaan bahan bakar fosil dan mengelola limbah secara efektif. Analisis ini menyelidiki berbagai teknologi konversi energi—seperti biodigesti anaerobik dan gasifikasi—untuk mengubah limbah organik menjadi sumber energi yang berharga seperti biogas dan biofuel. Dengan menggunakan data dari studi terkini dan visualisasi dari VOSviewer, hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa teknologi ini tidak hanya mengurangi emisi gas rumah kaca tetapi juga mendukung pengembangan ekonomi lokal melalui penciptaan lapangan kerja dan pengembangan infrastruktur yang berkelanjutan. Selain itu, analisis ini juga menyoroti pentingnya kemitraan antar sektor dan kebijakan pemerintah dalam memfasilitasi adopsi teknologi energi terbarukan dari limbah. Kesimpulan dari studi ini menegaskan bahwa limbah organik, jika dikelola dengan teknologi yang tepat, dapat menyediakan solusi energi yang tidak hanya mendukung tujuan ekonomi tetapi juga tujuan ekologi global.

Abstract

Abstract Agriculture is an important sector for Indonesia. Because around 30% of the population works in the agricultural industry. Currently, agricultural conditions in Indonesia are facing challenges due to climate anomalies. Unpredictable climate changes, shorter growing seasons, an increase in pests and diseases and these conditions have an impact on increasing production costs while yields are not optimal. Climate change is one of the obstacles in increasing plant productivity. The negative impacts of extreme global climate change include the degradation of land and water resources, damage to agricultural and irrigation infrastructure, the emergence of floods and droughts, and increased attacks by pests and plant diseases. Therefore, farmers need knowledge and farming skills that are adaptive to climate change or what is known as Climate Smart Agriculture (CSA). Climate Smart Agriculture is a useful approach to guide the actions needed to transform and reorient agricultural systems to effectively support development and ensure food security in conditions of climate change. CSA technology focuses on climate resilience and food security with the main objectives being: 1.) Increasing agricultural productivity and income in a sustainable manner, 2.) Adapting and building food security to climate change, 3.) Reducing and minimizing greenhouse gas emissions (Mitigation), 4.) Optimizing the use of various resources. So it is hoped that optimal results will be obtained in the agricultural sector. This research is qualitative research with a descriptive approach. The researchers use research data in the form of secondary data obtained from a number of credible sources such as scientific articles, books and a number of other sources that are credible and commonly used in research. These data were analyzed using analytical tools with stages of data collection, data selection, data reduction and drawing conclusions.

Abstract

Abstract Fuel oil (BBM) consumption in Indonesia has increased from year to year, but the availability of fuel oil will gradually become scarce. Bioethanol can be used as a substitute for fuel oil (BBM) depending on its purity level. Bioethanol is a liquid resulting from the fermentation process of sugar from carbohydrates which has good prospects as a liquid fuel with raw materials that are renewable, environmentally friendly and very profitable economically. Bioethanol can be used as a gasoline mixture for vehicle fuel and can be used as cooking fuel in households. The use of bioethanol can reduce CO gas emissions significantly. Bioethanol can be used directly as fuel oil or mixed into premium as an additive in a certain ratio (Gasohol or Gasoline alcohol). If mixed into gasoline, bioethanol can increase the octane number significantly. Bioethanol is known as an environmentally friendly fuel, because it is free from pollutant emissions. Bioethanol can be made from plant raw materials that contain starch such as cassava, sweet potato, corn, sago and molasses. One of the materials that can be used to make fuel from ethanol is the cassava plant. Cassava is a tuber that contains carbohydrates that come from the roots of the cassava plant. Cassava is very easy to plant and maintenance is not difficult. Cassava is usually used as a substitute for rice, but can also be used as an alternative to fuel oil. This research is qualitative research with a descriptive approach. Researchers use research data in the form of secondary data obtained from a number of credible sources such as scientific articles, books and a number of other sources that are credible and commonly used in research. These data were analyzed using analytical tools with stages of data collection, data selection, data reduction and drawing conclusions. Keywords: Fuel Oil, Bioethanol, Cassava
