Development of ocean renewable energy model in indonesia to support eco-friendly energy

Renewable energy is a solution for reducing environmental damage caused by greenhouse gas emissions from fossil fuels. Energy consumption in Indonesia involves sectors such as industry, households, transportation, and agriculture, which still heavily rely on non-renewable energy sources. Indonesia possesses significant maritime potential, boasting the second longest coastline in the world, a water area covering 71%, and abundant marine biological resources that can contribute to maritime economic growth. This research aims to leverage remote sensing technology and geographic information science to harness Indonesia's maritime potential. In the realm of renewable energy, this study emphasizes the potential of wave energy and current energy in Indonesia, with the objective of establishing an Ocean Renewable Energy (ORE) model. Additionally, the research will consider marine habitat suitability to mitigate any negative impact on biodiversity from power generation activities. Based on the research findings, the ocean current energy in Lombok Strait has a high energy potential reaching 1,035 Watts and Maluku Sea has 1,536 Watts, while the southwest region exhibits wave energy potential of Panaitan Island has a wave energy potential of 23,051 kW/m, while Sangiang Island has a potential of 12,842 kW/m. Furthermore, potential energy locations will be identified through the overlaying of potential fish zones. The ultimate goal of this research is to fulfill sustainable energy needs, decrease dependence on fossil fuels, and promote sustainable economic growth in Indonesia.
