Abstract

The revocation of fuel subsidies creates significant economic pressure on MSMEs, especially the culinary and fashion sectors, through increased operational costs that erode competitiveness. The transformation towards a sustainable business model through the adoption of green energy technology is an urgent need to build business resilience. This study aims to: (1) Analyze the impact of the revocation of fuel subsidies on the cost structure and competitiveness of MSMEs; (2) Identify the most feasible green energy technologies; (3) Formulate an integrated sustainable business model. The research uses a mixed-methods explanatory sequential approach. Quantitative data was collected through a survey of 301 MSMEs, followed by in-depth interviews and FGDs for qualitative data. Data analysis uses inferential statistics and thematic analysis. The increase in fuel increased the operating costs of culinary and fashion MSMEs by an average of 22.3% and 18.7%. Small-scale solar panels are the most technically feasible (score 4.2/5), while biomass stoves are the most economically feasible (ROI 25-35%). Successfully formulated a "Green-Driven Circular Model" based on three pillars: operational efficiency, green value proposition, and multi-stakeholder collaboration. The adoption of green energy technology has proven to be effective as a post-subsidy adaptation strategy. The implementation of a sustainable business model requires collaboration between the government (incentives), technology providers (mentoring), and MSMEs. The findings of this study provide strategic guidance for MSMEs and policy makers in the transition to a green economy.
