Using fossil fuels contributes to carbon dioxide and methane emissions that increasingly damage nature. Innovations in renewable energy that are more environmentally friendly with good energy supply chain management need to be implemented immediately. Indonesia is an archipelagic country with an imbalance in energy sufficiency figures in several regions, including Balikukup village in East Kalimantan. This condition hinders peoples daily activities and is a significant obstacle to business activities. This research was conducted to design a zero-carbon renewable hybrid energy innovation that can preserve the environment and improve the communitys economy using solar energy and coconut shells. The design was simulated using the HOMER application to find out how much potential and electricity the residents of Balikukup village would get. This study obtained a system configuration scenario: the marine product drying machine, which has a total production of 4,106 kWh/yr. This machine requires a PV capacity of 7,627 kW/yr, 18 batteries, and an inverter capacity of 1.62 kW. In addition, coconut shell briquettes can also optimize the marine product drying machine where 100 - 150 kg of coconut shell waste can increase the drying temperature to 60° - 70° C in a faster time of around 3 - 4 hours to reduce the weight of marine products from 5 - 8 kg to 1 - ½ kg.

Conclusion

This study successfully designed a hybrid energy system configuration that can significantly contribute to the production of seafood processing in Balikukup Village.The total energy production of 4,106 kWh/yr optimizes the operation of the seafood drying machine, improving the quality and quantity of seafood processing production.Production activities can run more efficiently and sustainably with a more stable energy availability.

Future Research

Penelitian lebih lanjut dapat dilakukan untuk menguji efektivitas dan efisiensi sistem hybrid ini dalam skala yang lebih besar, dengan mempertimbangkan variasi cuaca dan fluktuasi permintaan energi sepanjang tahun. Selain itu, studi komparatif perlu dilakukan untuk membandingkan biaya dan manfaat sistem hybrid ini dengan sumber energi lain yang tersedia di Balikukup, seperti diesel, untuk menentukan solusi energi yang paling ekonomis dan berkelanjutan. Terakhir, penelitian lanjutan dapat fokus pada pengembangan teknologi pengolahan limbah kelapa yang lebih efisien dan ramah lingkungan, serta eksplorasi potensi pemanfaatan limbah kelapa untuk aplikasi energi lainnya, seperti produksi biogas atau biofuel, guna memaksimalkan manfaat ekonomi dan lingkungan dari sumber daya lokal ini.
