Abstract

The increasing demand for electricity in urban areas of Indonesia demands diversification of sustainable energy sources. On-grid Solar Power Plants (PLTS) are a strategic alternative to reduce dependence on fossil fuels and increase household energy resilience. However, optimizing PLTS design still faces technical and structural challenges, such as the mismatch between panel production capacity and electricity consumption patterns, limited space, and weak regulatory support and fiscal incentives. This study uses a qualitative approach with a case study in an urban housing complex to examine the design process, implementation, and obstacles of on-grid PLTS. Data were obtained through in-depth interviews, field observations, and studies of policy and technical documents. The results of the study indicate that the success of PLTS implementation is highly dependent on a design that is contextual to the technical and social characteristics of housing, the support of fiscal policies such as initial subsidies, and institutional integration between communities, local governments, and the private sector. In addition, community-based approaches such as energy cooperatives can increase inclusive system adoption. This study concludes that on-grid PLTS is not only a technical solution for the clean energy transition, but also an instrument of socio-economic transformation that requires multidimensional synergy in its implementation in the urban environment of Indonesia

Abstract

This study discusses the paradigm shift in mechanical engineering due to the adoption of 3D printing technology as part of the industrial revolution 4.0. This additive manufacturing technology offers advantages in terms of design complexity, production efficiency, and cost flexibility, but also raises technical challenges such as material anisotropy, surface roughness, and process parameter control. Through a descriptive qualitative approach based on literature studies, this study explores the impact of 3D printing on the structure of the manufacturing industry, performance-based design, and the need for reform in engineering education. Data sources are taken from scientific journals, academic books, and technical reports from the last decade (2014–2024), with a thematic analysis of technology applications, implementation challenges, and implications for mechanical engineering curricula. The results show that although 3D printing has fundamentally changed the design and production process, its integration into the industry is still limited by conventional supply chain structures and lack of human resource readiness. This study emphasizes the importance of transforming the engineering education system towards a digital-based interdisciplinary approach, as well as the need for critical and contextual technology adoption. Thus, 3D printing does not only act as a production tool, but also as a catalyst for systemic change in mechanical engineering and manufacturing.

Abstract

Rapid urbanization has pushed cities in Indonesia to face complex challenges related to infrastructure capacity, public services, and urban governance. Smart cities are seen as a strategic solution to build efficient, adaptive, and sustainable cities through the use of digital technologies such as the Internet of Things (IoT), artificial intelligence (AI), and big data. However, the implementation of smart cities in Indonesia still faces various obstacles, including digital infrastructure inequality, low human resource capacity, and weak institutional coordination. This study uses a qualitative descriptive approach and a SWOT analysis framework to identify the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats in the implementation of smart cities in urban areas in Indonesia. Data were obtained from policy literature studies, national and international agency reports, and smart city project documentation. The results of the study show that the success of smart cities is highly dependent on the synergy between infrastructure readiness, utilization of technological opportunities, and mitigation of socio-technological risks. Policies are needed that encourage cross-sector collaboration, citizen data protection, and strengthening digital literacy and local capacity. With a participatory approach and inclusive governance, smart cities can be an instrument for transforming cities that are not only technologically modern, but also socially just and sustainable in the long term.

Abstract

Limited access to electricity in remote areas of Indonesia reflects complex structural issues, including geographic constraints, policy inequalities, and the low effectiveness of centralized approaches. Thousands of villages in the 3T (Disadvantaged, Frontier, and Outermost) regions still do not enjoy reliable electricity, hampering socio-economic development and reinforcing the cycle of poverty. Although Indonesia has great potential for renewable energy—such as solar and wind—its use is still minimal due to infrastructure constraints, investment, and non-contextual development approaches. In this context, a hybrid solar-wind energy system integrated with Internet of Things (IoT) technology offers an efficient and sustainable decentralized solution. IoT enables real-time monitoring, predictive maintenance, and data-driven energy management, which are critical in remote areas with limited technicians and physical access. This study uses a qualitative approach through a literature review to examine the challenges, potential, and policy relevance in developing IoT-based renewable energy systems. The results of the analysis show that transforming energy systems in marginalized areas requires not only technological innovation, but also a paradigm shift towards inclusive energy justice. Therefore, strengthening local capacity and integrating context-based policies are key to realizing a fair, reliable and sustainable energy system in Indonesia.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the development of sensor technology in civil engineering infrastructure monitoring systems through a literature study approach with a qualitative descriptive method. The need for accurate, real-time, and sustainable monitoring systems is increasingly urgent as the complexity and age of public infrastructure increases. This study highlights the evolution of sensors such as strain gauges, accelerometers, and Wireless Sensor Network (WSN)-based systems that are now integrated with the Internet of Things (IoT) and edge computing. This technology enables early detection of structural damage and efficient data processing, thereby increasing the effectiveness of structural maintenance and safety. However, implementation in the field still faces challenges such as initial costs, extreme environmental conditions, and limitations of existing structures. Through content analysis of various scientific publications over the past decade, it was found that the success of the Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) system is not only determined by the quality of the sensor, but also by the data integration strategy and analytical-based decision making. This study provides academic contributions in mapping trends and challenges of sensor technology and offers practical insights for the development of adaptive and sustainable monitoring systems, especially in developing countries like Indonesia.
