Abstract
Currently, the utilization of renewable energy is increasing for remote islands around the world including in Indonesia. In this paper, feasibility study regarding renewable energy resources to develop a micro grid system for Tangkeno, in Kabaena Island, southeast Sulawesi is done. Observed energy resources in this study include solar energy, wind energy, and micro-hydro. The capacity of the system is calculated to meet local electricity load until the next 10 years(the year 2028) which is around 120.150 kVA. From data and measurement, the potential of renewable energy for electricity production in Tangkeno is relatively good which can fulfill load demand under the studied period. It is promising to use renewable energy sources for developing a micro grid system as an alternative to meet local electricity needs.
