Abstract

The implementation of sustanable energy in educational institutions recognizes the potential of rooftop photovoltaic (PV) systems as a viable energy source. This research aims to evaluate and optimize the design of a rooftop photovoltaic (PV) system for Building 1 of the Fakultas Teknik dan Sains (FTS) at Universitas Pembangunan Nasional "Veteran" Jawa Timur (UPNVJT) using the System Advisor Model (SAM) software. Integrated data including meteorological data, building characteristics, and solar panel system specifications were utilized. The available rooftop area for PV system installation is approximately 200 m² with a north-facing orientation, which is estimated to accommodate a 30 kWp PV system capacity. Tilt angle and azimuth scenarios were varied to achieve maximum energy production. Based on SAM simulations, the optimal installation angle of 15° tilt and azimuth generated an annual energy output of 44,052 kWh with a performance ratio of 71% and a capacity factor of 17%. This study confirms that rooftop PV installation at FTS UPNVJT is technically feasible, and it is expected to serve as a foundation for the gradual implementation of PV systems as part of green campus initiatives and energy transition in educational institutions.

Abstract

Abstrak Semikonduktor merupakan material yang terus dikembangkan, termasuk melalui pemanfaatan bahan alam sebagai kandidat bio-material sel surya. Penelitian ini berfokus pada pemanfaatan kalsium karbonat alami dari cangkang kerang tebalan Pantai Tuban sebagai bahan baku perovskit CaTiO₃ untuk material bio-sel surya, yang masih jarang diteliti. Proses sintesis dilakukan melalui tahapan pembersihan, pemanasan, dan pencampuran dalam reaksi padatan antara kalsium karbonat dan titanium dioksida (TiO₂). Analisis dilakukan menggunakan metode Tauc plot untuk menentukan celah energi serta difraksi sinar-X (XRD) guna mengidentifikasi struktur kristal. Hasil karakterisasi menunjukkan bahwa material yang terbentuk memiliki struktur kristal perovskit dengan fasa ortorombik, ditunjukkan oleh parameter kisi a = 5,388 Å, b = 5,432 Å, c = 7,639 Å, dan volume sel sebesar 223,567 ų. Selain itu, diperoleh nilai energi gap dengan transisi direct allowed (n = 1/2) sebesar 3,94 eV dan transisi indirect allowed (n = 2) sebesar 3,67 eV. Temuan ini menegaskan bahwa CaTiO₃ hasil sintesis dari cangkang kerang tebalan memiliki karakter semikonduktor yang potensial untuk diaplikasikan sebagai bio-material sel surya, khususnya sebagai aditif dalam lapisan penyangga maupun lapisan transpor elektron.   Abstract Semiconductors are materials that continue to be widely developed, including through the utilization of natural resources as potential bio-materials for solar cells. This study focuses on the use of natural calcium carbonate derived from Tebalan seashells collected from Tuban Beach as a precursor for CaTiO₃ perovskite, which remains rarely investigated. The synthesis process was carried out through several stages, namely cleaning, heating, and solid-state reaction between calcium carbonate and titanium dioxide (TiO₂). Characterization was performed using the Tauc plot method to determine the energy band gap and X-ray diffraction (XRD) to identify the crystal structure. The results show that the synthesized material possesses a perovskite crystal structure with an orthorhombic phase, indicated by lattice parameters a = 5.388 Å, b = 5.432 Å, c = 7.639 Å, and a unit cell volume of 223.567 ų. Furthermore, the band gap energy values were found to be 3.94 eV for the direct allowed transition (n = 1/2) and 3.67 eV for the indirect allowed transition (n = 2). These findings confirm that CaTiO₃ synthesized from Tebalan seashells exhibits semiconductor characteristics with promising potential for application as a bio-material in solar cells, particularly as an additive in buffer layers or electron transport layers.
