Perancangan Sistem Pembangkit Listrik Hibrida untuk Menggerakkan Pompa Air di Area Pertanian
Abstract: The economic
development and population growth in Indonesia has been increasing rapidly.
Most of the agricultural land converted into residential and industrial areas,
while many farmers moved to a mountainous area. Farmers in mountainous
agricultural area using existing sources of water in a small mountainous rivers
to irrigate agricultural land, they use man power to lift water from a small
river to agricultural land, it is highly ineffective in agricultural products.
Farmers with adequate financial can use pumps for raising the water to agricultural
land. But because it is far from the power source, pump can only work with the
use of expensive ossil fuels. Therefore, to overcome this problem it is
necessary to use a renewable energy source which is available in the area such
as solar energy and wind or both of them. This research examines about the
hybrid power plant (PLTH) of solar and wind energy to power the agriculture
pump. The wind speed and solar radiation data is obtained from measurements by
BMKG-SMPK-Plus Sare. The output power of the Photovoltaic is equal to 193 W
with the exposure time of 5 hours/day, while the power output of the wind turbine
is 459.84 W with a 3m blade diameter long and 7 hours/day blowing wind. The
pump power was 558 W with a capacity of 20,160 liters/hour, it is used for 15
ha of agricultural area. Based on the analysis results, the proposed system
will generate an initial investment cost of US$ 14.938 with power production
equal to 3.210 kW/year.
