The research presents a comprehensive analysis of the financial viability of producing green hydrogen from excess power generated by small hydropower plants in Indonesia. It highlights Indonesia’s commitment to increasing renewable energy sources to achieve net zero emissions by 2060 and the role of Perusahaan Listrik Negara (PLN) in this transition. The study examines the potential of utilizing dormant excess power from retroactive small hydropower plants to produce green hydrogen, which could significantly decarbonize hard-to-abate sectors and enhance energy security. The authors conducted a financial analysis using the NREL H2A Production Model to determine the optimal technical arrangement and financial simulation for green hydrogen production. The paper discusses various electrolyzer technologies, with a focus on alkaline water electrolyzers due to their high technology readiness level and low capital expenditure. It also explores the sensitivity of the levelized cost of hydrogen to different factors, particularly the cost of utilities. The findings suggest that green hydrogen production from small hydropower plants is economically feasible in Indonesia, with the potential to contribute to the global hydrogen market and support the country’s green circular economy. The study concludes that green hydrogen production using excess electricity from small hydropower plants is a viable method for decarbonization and offers scalability for future energy production in Indonesia, with the first initial step being as a green hydrogen and natural gas co-firing fuel mixing in gas turbines.

Fintech lending has emerged as a transformative tool for expanding financial inclusion and reducing poverty. This study conducts a systematic literature review (SLR) of 39 articles published between 2010 and 2023, using Scopus as the primary database, to evaluate the impact of fintech lending on poverty alleviation across different socio-economic contexts. The findings reveal that fintech lending enhances financial accessibility through mobile money, digital microfinance, and alternative credit-scoring mechanisms, particularly benefiting underserved populations. However, challenges such as the digital divide, financial literacy gaps, and risks of over-indebtedness persist. Islamic finance models, including digital zakat and Shariah-compliant microfinance, have shown the potential to support poverty alleviation in Muslim-majority regions. Effective fintech implementation depends on adaptive regulatory frameworks, consumer protection measures and integration with traditional financial institutions. This study contributes to the literature by synthesizing global insights on fintech’s role in poverty alleviation and identifying key success factors for sustainable financial inclusion. Policymakers and practitioners can leverage these findings to develop inclusive fintech ecosystems that mitigate risks while maximizing social and economic impact. Future research should explore the long-term effects of fintech lending and its role in environmental sustainability and regulatory advancements.

The process of this research is to integrate the Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process (FAHP) method and the Fuzzy Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (Fuzzy TOPSIS) by creating a strategic decision-making framework to optimize coal transportation modes in Jambi Province, Indonesia. An analysis of the inefficiency of coal transportation in Jambi was conducted due to the failure to achieve production targets, which were only 44-50% of the target set for 2022 and 2023.A thorough analysis has been conducted to determine both the criteria and sub-criteria for evaluating alternative coal transportation modes, starting from trucks using dedicated coal routes, combinations of trucks with dedicated coal trains, combinations of trucks with barges, and combinations of trucks with conveyors and barges. Underpinned by strong methodology controlling evaluation discrepancies and guaranteeing study validity, the approach included expert opinions from 25 stakeholders spanning government, industry, academia, and community sectors. Results reveal that at 38.5%, transportation costs are the most significant element; environmental impact follows at 27.3%; safety concerns at 19.8%; and time efficiency at 14.4%. Based on the analysis results, both through criteria weighing and testing against alternatives, it was found that the best mode of transportation is trucks using the special coal road. And it is recommended to consider the level of operational efficiency, reduction of environmental impact, and increasing regional competitiveness compared to other regions by selecting the most effective and strategic mode of transportation.
