Abstract

Biomass energy is recognized as having strategic potential in overcoming energy security challenges and its participation to reduce the impact of environmental problems. The research-purpose is to evaluate how implementing a biomass energy policy can support national defense and sustainability. Through the framework of the literature, this study describes the concept of biomass energy and examines its relation to national defense. Energy policy analysis and reversed with energy security in Indonesia are also obtained from the reflection of the literature. The results show that biomass energy can strengthen the security of a country's energy supply by diversifying energy sources and reducing dependence on imported fossil fuels. This will support the operational defense system in dealing with fluctuations in energy prices and supplies. The implementation of biomass energy also has the potential to increase national energy independence, reduce the risk of energy supply disruptions, and strengthen national resilience. Utilization of biomass energy also contributes to improving climate change and negative environmental impacts. With the right technology, reductions in greenhouse gas emissions can be achieved, supporting environmental sustainability goals and securing the future of national defense

Abstract

Power generator is one of sector that contributes to carbon emissions, because power plants in Indonesia are still dominated by the use of fuel. It is important to analyze the resulting carbon footprint to determine the extent of its impact, especially on the environment and its contribution to the greenhouse gas (GHG) effect, so that appropriate emission reduction measures can be identified. The method used is a literature study by collecting secondary data from the previous research existed in Indonesia. The average amount of carbon footprints are produced by Indonesia from fossil power plants (Coal, Natural Gas, and Diesel Fuel) in the last 5 years is 5538.11 KgCO2/MWh. The potential demand for electricity and the emissions resulted by-products will continue to increase every year, so solutions are needed best way to reduce emissions. Emission reduction can be resolved by increasing the use of New and Renewable Energy (NRE) as a raw material for Diesel Power Plants (DPT). The type of EBT used is biodiesel from palm oil. The carbon footprint of palm oil biodiesel production process is only 2281.66 KgCO2/MWh.  41% lower than that of fossil power plants. The push for NRE development needs to be further increased in order to reduce energy emissions and to achieve the target of using New and Renewable Energy (NRE) of at least 23% and 31% in 2025 and 2050.
