Abstract

The shift towards decentralized and sustainable energy frameworks is progressively propelled by innovations in technology and the imperative for energy democratization. Blockchain technology is a viable approach for facilitating peer-to-peer (P2P) energy trading, thereby diminishing dependence on intermediaries while augmenting transparency, security, and efficiency within energy transactions. Nevertheless, the application of blockchain-enabled energy trading continues to be constrained in Indonesia due to regulatory, technical, and economic challenges. This study aims to develop a smart implementation framework for integrating blockchain into P2P renewable energy trading in Indonesia. A qualitative research approach is employed, incorporating content analysis and thematic analysis of policy documents, technical reports, and stakeholder interviews. A blockchain simulation model is also designed to evaluate feasibility, efficiency, and scalability. The findings highlight that blockchain can significantly enhance renewable energy adoption by facilitating direct energy exchanges among prosumers, improving grid resilience, and reducing transaction costs. The proposed framework outlines essential components such as smart contracts, digital tokens, decentralized ledgers, and regulatory compliance mechanisms. Case studies from global implementations, including Power Ledger in Australia and LO3 Energy in the U.S., demonstrate the viability of blockchain-based energy trading. The study concludes that while blockchain has strong potential to transform Indonesia’s energy landscape, successful implementation requires supportive policies, infrastructure investment, and public awareness. Future research should focus on optimizing smart contracts and developing consensus mechanisms tailored to Indonesia’s regulatory and market conditions.

Abstract

Geothermal drilling operations in remote areas are commonly powered by diesel generators, leading to high fuel consumption and substantial carbon emissions. This study explores the integration of a hybrid solar PV–diesel generator system to enhance energy sustainability at a geothermal drilling base camp in Indonesia. The system design considers local renewable energy potential and incorporates integration with existing equipment. The integration strategy is evaluated through a feasibility analysis considering system efficiency, energy yield, and environmental impact. Using Helioscope software for solar simulation and load analysis based on equipment specifications, the results show that the PV system can supply up to 35% of the daytime energy demand, reducing daily carbon emissions by 8% and enhancing generator performance through optimized load sharing. Despite the absence of battery storage, the system demonstrates significant environmental and operational benefits, while also highlighting the potential for further improvements through energy storage integration, smart control systems, and targeted energy management.

Abstract

The manufacturing sector in Batam faces increasing pressure from rising energy costs and operational inefficiencies. This study investigates how integrating risk management frameworks, specifically ISO 31000 and FMEA, can enhance energy efficiency in manufacturing operations. A mixed-methods approach was employed, combining quantitative analysis of energy consumption data from selected firms with qualitative insights from interviews with key industrial stakeholders. Baseline energy performance was established, and operational risks were assessed and prioritized. Findings show that outdated machinery, poor maintenance, and unplanned downtimes significantly contributed to energy inefficiency. Implementation of risk-based interventions led to measurable improvements in energy use and cost reduction. Firms adopting the integrated approach reported that 15% energy saving in PT X results in operational cost savings of $ 29.994, and 10% energy saving in PT Y results in operational cost savings of $ 23.952. The Return on Investment (ROI) from implementing an integrated energy risk management strategy is estimated to reach 18 months to 20 months, based on reduced energy consumption and increased productivity. The study underscores the importance of tailored risk-energy frameworks in industrial settings and suggests avenues for future research in broader contexts.

Abstract

Steam power plants are among the primary sources of electricity generation; however, they face significant challenges in terms of energy efficiency and environmental impact due to their high consumption of coal. Innovative strategies are required to reduce emissions and improve system efficiency. One potential approach is the reutilization of condenser cooling water to drive a hydropower turbine before being discharged into the sea. By harnessing the head and flow rate of this water, the kinetic energy from the waste stream can be converted into additional electricity. This study examines a process engineering approach to integrating a hydropower generation system with a steam power plant, encompassing technical analysis, energy efficiency, as well as economic and environmental impacts. Simulation results indicate that the system is capable of generating between 14.2 and 49.5 kW of power, depending on operating conditions and water availability. The electricity produced can be utilized for internal Steam power plant needs, such as cooling pumps and lighting, thereby reducing dependence on coal combustion. This strategy not only improves energy efficiency and reduces operational costs but also supports environmental conservation and the long-term sustainability of power plant operations.
