Abstract

Fossil fuels contribute to global warming and climate change. Solar energy, a renewable and safe energy source, is a promising alternative. Solar thermal energy (STE) can be used in various sectors to produce thermal or electrical energy from the sun. In Malaysia, electricity is cheaper, making it less appealing to switch to renewable energy. This study aims to explore the potential of solar thermal heat systems in industrial processes in Malaysia, focusing on the oil palm refinery Mewaholeo Industries Sdn Bhd. The main challenge is the high capital investment and varying efficiencies of solar thermal systems, which depend on technical specifications and environmental factors. To determine the optimal specifications for solar thermal system installation, this study will examine the process flow, propose a solar thermal system design, collect data, and integrate solar thermal energy. The best collector type, number of collectors, and solar thermal design will be analyzed using an Excel tool called Solar Heat Industry Process (SHIP) for performance and financial evaluation.

Abstract

Through a thorough analysis using Net Present Cost (NPC) over a 20-year period, this research presents a comprehensive and economically optimized solar panel design methodology. The study examines two different PV system configurations: On-Grid PV and Off-Grid PV, using sophisticated simulation and analytical techniques with the aid of HOMER Pro software. The simulation results offer compelling new information about these systems' economic viability. The simulation results in an NPC value of IDR 31,386,360,- for the Off-Grid PV configuration. The On-Grid PV system, in contrast, exhibits a significantly lower NPC value of IDR 8,903,329,- emphasizing its superior economic performance. This On-Grid PV system boasts a significant energy generation capacity of 5,012 kWh/year in addition to favorable cost efficiency. Notably, this is greater than the National Power Company's 1,186 kWh/year energy output. These results highlight the financial benefits of the On-Grid PV system and demonstrate its capability to provide affordable and sustainable energy solutions over a long period. The thorough analysis carried out in this study aids in the optimization of solar panel designs, offers insightful information for future sustainable energy projects, and emphasizes the crucial part that economic factors play in influencing the adoption of renewable energy technologies.

Abstract

The background of this research is the low of student learning engagement and creativity. The purpose of this study is to analyze the potential of project-based learning and YouTube in enhancing learning engagement and creativity. The method used in this research is a semi-systematic literature review. The results of the study describe that project-based learning and the YouTube platform have the potential to increase learning engagement and creativity. Some potential aspects of project-based learning integrated with YouTube include relevant and interesting learning content, real project learning experiences, interactive and responsive platforms, flexibility and adaptability, online collaboration features, experimental activity opportunities, and constructive feedback. The findings of this research can be considered by educators when designing learning experiences aimed at improving student learning engagement and creativity. Further research recommendations include the need for experimental implementation of project-based learning integrated with YouTube and measuring the impact of treatment in increasing learning engagement and creativity.
