Abstract

Indonesia intends to increase the renewable energy ratio to at least 23% from the energy mix generated by 2025. This target is also in line with the Paris Agreement that Indonesia ratified in October 2016. However, renewable energy capacity has not been significant, as 11.38% of the total on-grid power capacity (MEMR, 2021). More than 90% of renewable comes from hydropower and geothermal, and only a limited capacity comes from wind and solar energy. On the other hand, wind and solar energy potential are enormous for energy generation in Indonesia. One of the barriers that hinder the use of both is their intermittent nature so that they are not economically profitable and can disrupt the existing power grid. Energy storage systems (ESS) can reduce this intermittent problem as frequency regulators and voltage support to the grid. This paper reviews the potential and challenges of energy storage and renewable power generation, especially wind and solar power. This paper also outlines lessons learned from energy storage systems that have been implemented and are still under development. The discussion focuses on the types of energy storage suitable for applications in Indonesia.

Abstract

This study examines the performance of a solar power plant with a total capacity of 125 KWp, which operates for one year in Blora, Central Java. The ability of this power plant is a total of PV modules with 20 kWp, ten kWp, and five kWp capacities spread across eight locations. The annual performance of the rooftop solar power plant is measured automatically by the converter installed in each module. The resulting data from inverters are compared to the meteorological conditions from the meteorological agency. This research will investigate the influence of climate on the power generated, the efficiency of the equipment in a power plant, and the effect of pseudo motion of the sun. It was found that there were variations in energy output throughout the year, and it was concluded that the maximum annual energy was produced in July-August. In addition to weather, other factors need to be investigated further to determine the causes of variations in solar PV output.
