Abstract

Indonesia is currently intensively developing its renewable energy resource and targets at least 23% by 2025. As an archipelago country, Indonesia has the potential to benefit from its abundant renewable energy resources from its offshore regions. However, the short tidal range of mixed semi-diurnal and the suitable tidal turbine capacity may hinder marine renewable energy development in Indonesian waters. This paper presents higher-order hydrodynamic numerical models to provide spatial information for tidal current resource assessment of the Patinti Strait. The present study applied the hydrographic and oceanographic method to produce input of the numerical model. Based on the selected simulation analysis, the highest current speed could be identified around Sabatang and Saleh Kecil Island with up to 2.5 m/s in P1 and 1.7 m/s in P4. Besides, the operational hours for the two observation points are 69% and 74.5%, respectively. The results indicate that this location is of prime interest for tidal turbine implementation as an energy source, for medium capacity (300 kW) and high capacity (1 MW).

Abstract

Previous studies have shown the abundance of tidal energy resources in Indonesia. However, some sites have yet to be considered. The Lepar Strait, for example, is located between Bangka and Lepar Islands. This paper describes a field survey and numerical modelling conducted in the Lepar Strait. The modelling was performed using Delft3D, with the aim of determining potential sites for harvesting tidal current energy and estimate the generated power. In the modelling, the domain decomposition method was employed for model downscaling, allowing grid resolution reaching 130 x 130 m2, which is sufficient to represent the narrow gaps between tiny islands in the area of interest. The National Bathymetric (Batnas) from the Geospatial Information Agency (BIG) and the International Hydrographic Organization (IHO) tide constituents were applied for the bathymetry and tide elevation boundaries. The comparison between the surveyed and modelled data showed a good agreement. The RMSE and r for water level are > 0.95 and < 0.15, and the RMSE for velocity was <0.19. Furthermore, an energetic flow reaching 1.5 m/s was found at the Northern part of Lepar Strait, situated at the narrow gaps. The Gorlov Helical Turbine was selected in this study due to shallow water and low mean velocity. In the 2019 model, the power density and power output at the best potential sites were 2,436.94 kWh/m2 and 1,870.41 kWh, respectively. This number is higher than those previously found in Kelabat Bay. Nonetheless, it is still far below the currently promising project in Larantuka and Lombok Straits. Future research is recommended, to conduct a detailed field measurement campaign and assess the impact of energy extraction in more detail.

Abstract

In 2015, Bali Province is mandated by ESDM ministry to become the National Region of Clean Energy, promoting efforts to explore new source of electricity namely tidal stream energy. Previous works have demonstrated that Toyapakeh Strait contains a promising tidal stream resource, with a high stream in a long period. In this study, hydrodynamic modelling and power production analysis is conducted to evaluate this potential with an aim to meet energy demand of Tiga Nusa Cluster Islands. Twenty-one Gen5 KHPS turbines are employed in this study, at an optimized location, 8.72°S, 115.44°E, which contains the highest energy potential. Financial analysis, with 25-year return period of investment and 3.60% interest rate, resulting levelized cost of energy (LCOE) of Rp 6,100.kWh-1. This value is higher than the national and regional selling nominal, in other word the energy cost of tidal stream turbine is relatively high in this location. Nearly 46% of energy cost is spent for turbine fabrication, and from the sensitivity analysis, cutting half the turbine costs may reduce the price by Rp 1,400.kWh-1 while increasing the amount of installed turbine is less significant. Despite of the high prices, the study shows that Toyapakeh Strait holds a promising resource of tidal stream energy.

Abstract

In the past years, Indonesian people put more attention to Sunda Strait located between Java and Sumatra Islands, one of the busiest straits occupied with residential, recreational, fisheries, transportation, industrial and mining activities. Previous works on numerical modelling of tidal flow hydrodynamics of the Sunda Strait have resulted in good agreement against field data; however, the calibration of the models used was not described in detail. This paper presents the process of setting up the model, extensive calibration, validation and prediction of tidal currents for the Sunda Strait. A two-dimensional tidal-driven model is constructed using Delft3D, an open-source developed by Deltares. Four different bathymetry datasets, four different boundary condition configurations, and various bed roughness values are used, and their suitability in predicting tidal water level and current are investigated. It is found that changing the bathymetry and boundary conditions improve the model validation significantly. GEBCO_2019 bathymetry dataset outperforms the Batnas, even though it has a coarser resolution. For boundary conditions, the combination of water level and current velocity results in a better validation compares to using water level or current velocity only. However, the bed roughness shows an insignificant influence in predicting tidal conditions. The averaged current velocity is lower at the Southern than the Northern side of the strait due to a larger cross-section, consequence of deeper water. High tidal currents of magnitude around 2 m.s-1 are seen at the bottleneck of the strait.

Abstract

An inland waterway will be constructed in an existing channel in West Java, Indonesia. The change of salinity in a river due to capital dredging is investigated using a finite element modeling system. The location of the research is the Cikarang Bekasi Laut (CBL) channel, Bekasi Regency, West Java, Indonesia. The aim of this study is to simulate salinity propagation in the CBL before and after capital dredging. Salinity modeling is carried out using the Surface-water Modeling System (SMS). Field surveys of the topography, bathymetry, currents and water level are conducted for the model. The model results are validated with the current and water level field measurements. The field and model results agree well. The current and salinity results show that the trends are correlated with river discharges. After the capital dredging, the salinity in the CBL increases. Mitigation is carried out by constructing a check dam, which can reduce the average salinity in the upstream region by up to 0.05 ppt during the wet season and up to 0.12 ppt during the dry season.

Abstract

The 2021 South Kalimantan flood was recorded as the most serious ever to have taken place in the province. It occurred due to high-intensity rain during the period 10-19 January, accompanied by a spring tide. This study provides an overview of the disaster, with reference to the hydro-meteorological conditions (topography, tides, and precipitation). The method used was the analysis of the precipitation and its monthly rainfall pattern anomalies using remote sensing data. A Digital Elevation Model (DEM) was also analyzed to indicate the most noticeably flood-affected area. In certain areas, total precipitation during the ten days reached 672.8 mm, with daily precipitation peaking at 255 mm on January 14, greater than the 25-year return period value. The flood coincided with a spring tide, which peaked at 1.21 m on the evening of January 15. Using 20- year GPM data, it was found that ENSO and IOD coexisted with both the highest and lowest anomalies. With a La Niña event at the end of 2020,  a positive precipitation anomaly in 2021 was expected. The extreme precipitation is suspected to be the main driver of the  2021 South Kalimantan flood, whose impact was worsened by the spring tides. This  study conducts further research on the correlation between land-use change, rainfall, spring tide and flooding in South Kalimantan. In addition, it is recommended that the government plan flood risk  management by prioritizing areas based on vulnerability to climate hazards.

Abstract

The Indonesian government has set goals for increasing the use of renewable energy in the coming years. Currently, Indonesia relies heavily on non-renewable energy sources, which poses a threat to the environment due to the country's growing energy needs. This study aims to assess the potential for developing a tidal power plant in Capalulu Strait, North Maluku. Using hydrodynamic modelling, the study identified two potential locations at coordinates 1.877°S – 125.328°E (Capa-2) and 1.863°S – 125.323°E (Capa-4) which were selected for having median current speeds exceeding 1.8 m/s and maximum current speeds exceeding 3.5 m/s. The study tested a hypothetical implementation of KHPS Gen5 instrument(s) by Verdant Power, a 5 m diameter turbine with a rated nominal power of 37 kW and a maximum rated power of 56 kW. A power plant layout was designed to be placed at Capa-2 and Capa-4, each location accommodating 45 turbines. The development of this power plant is estimated to produce up to 22 GWh per year. Financial analysis resulted in a LCOE of IDR 5,930/kWh. However, this price is still high compared to the national electricity tariff of IDR 1,027.70/kWh. Variations in the number of turbines also may not result in a lower LCOE than the national tariff. Nevertheless, the estimated cost of generating electricity is still competitive compared to diesel, which is around IDR 5,804/kWh.
