Again, UI Student Wins First Place at LKTIN 2022 Thanks to Renewable Energy Design for Indonesia

Universitas Indonesia > News > Faculty of Engineering, News > Again, UI Student Wins First Place at LKTIN 2022 Thanks to Renewable Energy Design for Indonesia

“Indonesia has a big problem with the presence of renewable energy, namely the wrong planning of the selection of power plants for archipelagic countries. This results in the unsustainability of the power plant,” said Rhaditia Kurnia Asyuri, in his presentation at the National Scientific Writing Competition (LKTIN) S2 Category. Thanks to his presentation themed “Transition to Clean and Sustainable Energy”, Rhaditia won first place in the paper competition.

Rhaditia is a student of the Multidisciplinary Master’s program in Energy Systems Engineering, Faculty of Engineering, Universitas Indonesia (ESE FEng UI). In writing this scientific paper, Radhitia was mentored by Dr. Ing Eko Adhi Setiawan, IPU, FEng UI Lecturer who is also the Director of the Tropical Renewable Energy Center (TREC) FEng UI Research Institute.

“From this paper, I want to show that renewable energy, if properly designed, can have a very significant impact on a region. My scientific work produces a solution in the form of problem articulation, a basic model in system dynamics, based on the Causal Loop Diagram (CLD) simulation that has been developed previously,” said Rhadit.

In order for the penetration and distribution of renewable energy to be massively publicized, there is a need to realize that Indonesia is a maritime country and has a tropical climate. The use of fossil fuels, whose production is concentrated in just a few regions in Indonesia, results in very high inter-island fuel shipping costs. Not only is this not cost-effective, but it also results in very high fuel prices in Indonesia’s underdeveloped, frontier and outermost regions.

“Indonesia, which has a tropical climate, has abundant potential and variety of renewable energy. Based on the results of my research, the simple solution I offer is to install solar panels or other innovations from solar power plants, depending on the potential that exists on each island. If this is done immediately, Indonesia will be able to eliminate inter-island fossil fuel costs, ease the burden on the government, especially in subsidies, and people will not have to pay expensive electricity bills every month, especially people living in the islands,” said Rhadit.

“In this paper, Rhadit uses the CLD approach to find a solution to the topic. CLD is a general approach used in looking at what factors play an important role in an area. The CLD approach was developed based on data received through the distribution of questionnaires and interview sessions with authorities. CLD simulation is used to illustrate the feedback loop that affects the system dynamics in an area,” said Dr.-Ing. Eko Adhi regarding the approach used.

Rhaditia visited Mecan island and Sabira island to conduct research. Based on his findings, Rhaditia recommends the full utilization of solar power in Sabira island to provide saving cost for the local community. A clean and beautiful environment will also be created thanks to the use of this solar power plant. Moreover, ecotourism destinations can also be created due to the use of clean energy without damaging the environment. Investment is also created because the tourism and ecotourism sector has its own market.

Met on a separate occasion, Prof. Dr. Heri Hermansyah, ST, M.Eng, IPU, Dean of FEng UI, expressed his pride in Rhadit’s achievement. “From this research, it is proven that FEng UI students are able to produce superior renewable energy research and have a positive impact on society and the environment. Islands that depend on tourism destinations also benefit from the presence of this electricity access. Active community collaboration also plays a role in achieving the sustainability of EBT plants.”

The competition, which took place on April 18-June 4, 2022, carried the theme “Saving the Environment and Relevance to the G20.” The competition was organized by the Indonesian Society of Environmental Experts (IESA) and supported by PT Penjaminan Infrastruktur Indonesia (Persero).
