Abstract

This study investigates the effect of AI-based technology implementation, green energy sustainability, and product innovation on the economic growth of the manufacturing industry in Indonesia. Using a quantitative research approach, data were collected from 120 manufacturing firms and analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling-Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS 3). The results show that AI-based technology has the strongest positive impact on economic growth, followed by green energy sustainability and product innovation. AI-driven technologies optimize operations, reduce costs, and enhance decision-making, contributing significantly to the economic performance of firms. Green energy sustainability promotes long-term growth by reducing operational costs and improving environmental performance. While product innovation positively influences growth, its impact is relatively weaker, indicating the need for complementary factors. These findings provide insights for policymakers and industry leaders to focus on technological advancement, sustainability, and innovation as drivers of economic growth in Indonesia’s manufacturing sector.

Abstract

This study investigates the effect of clean energy technology infrastructure development on regional economic growth in Indonesia. Using a quantitative research design, data were collected from 70 respondents across different regions using a Likert scale ranging from 1 to 5. The analysis was conducted using SPSS version 26 to examine the relationship between clean energy infrastructure and regional economic performance. The results show a strong positive correlation between clean energy technology infrastructure and regional economic growth, with a statistically significant relationship. Furthermore, multiple regression analysis indicates that clean energy infrastructure development significantly predicts economic growth, while geographic location and government policy also play important roles. These findings suggest that investments in clean energy infrastructure are crucial drivers of regional economic development and highlight the need for supportive policies to maximize the benefits of renewable energy projects. This study provides valuable insights for policymakers and stakeholders in advancing sustainable development through clean energy initiatives.

Abstract

Indonesia’s transition to renewable energy is a pivotal aspect of its strategy to achieve sustainability and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. This study evaluates the impact of green energy policies on renewable power plant investments in Indonesia through a comparative analysis of solar, wind, geothermal, and hydropower projects. Using data from 2015 to 2024, the study examines the effectiveness of feed-in tariffs, tax incentives, and renewable energy mandates in driving investments. The results show that while policies like feed-in tariffs and tax incentives have significantly boosted investment in geothermal and hydropower projects, solar and wind energy sectors face challenges such as low tariff rates and infrastructure deficits. Comparative insights from successful international cases underscore the need for policy stability, grid expansion, and technology-specific strategies. This research provides actionable recommendations to optimize Indonesia’s green energy framework, fostering a more inclusive and sustainable renewable energy sector.

Abstract

The Industrial Revolution 4.0 has driven transformative changes in agriculture through the adoption of precision agriculture (PA) technologies, aimed at optimizing resource use and enhancing food security. This study conducts a systematic literature review of 52 Scopus-indexed documents to evaluate the role of these technologies in addressing global food challenges. Key innovations such as IoT, AI, drones, and robotics are highlighted for their contributions to increasing agricultural productivity, ensuring environmental sustainability, and mitigating the effects of climate variability. Despite their potential, barriers such as high implementation costs, technological complexity, and limited access in developing regions hinder widespread adoption. The findings underscore the need for targeted policies, infrastructure development, and inclusive practices to harness PA technologies for food security fully. This study provides valuable insights for researchers, policymakers, and practitioners to foster sustainable agricultural systems.

Abstract

The transition toward renewable energy is critical to achieving global sustainability goals, with solar power playing a significant role in diversifying energy sources. This study examines the effect of the 7 MWp Selong On-Grid Solar Power Plant (PLTS) on electricity network stability in West Nusa Tenggara (NTB), Indonesia. Using a qualitative approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews with five key informants, including policymakers, technical experts, and community representatives. Thematic analysis was conducted using NVivo software to identify the operational impacts, challenges, and opportunities of solar integration. Results indicate that the Selong PLTS contributes positively to voltage stability, reduces reliance on fossil fuels, and diversifies the energy mix. However, challenges such as intermittency, infrastructure limitations, and the absence of energy storage hinder its full potential. The study highlights the need for technological upgrades, stakeholder collaboration, and community engagement to optimize renewable energy adoption in NTB. These findings provide actionable insights for enhancing grid stability in regions integrating renewable energy.

Abstract

Traditional agriculture has long been an integral part of agrarian systems in various regions, yet global challenges such as climate change and urbanization demand more sustainable approaches. This study aims to explore the opportunities and challenges of integrating traditional agricultural systems with sustainable agriculture concepts through a literature review method. The findings reveal that traditional practices, such as crop rotation and organic fertilization, align with sustainability principles. However, there is a need to enhance efficiency through the application of modern technologies such as precision irrigation and integrated pest management. This integration faces significant challenges, including farmers' limited access to technology and a lack of supportive policies. The study highlights the importance of contextual approaches, farmer training, and cross-sector collaboration to optimize the potential of this integration. Thus, the findings provide relevant insights for developing sustainable agricultural policies and practices in Indonesia and other countries.
