Abstract
The potential of sea waves, located precisely in the Berakit area, can be used as electrical energy on a small scale. Kelong is a floating house situated on the coast, which anglers (fishermen) use to catch fish. In the Bintan area, there are two types of kelong, namely floating kelong and cacak (permanent) kelong. Floating kelong, as the name implies, is a kelong that can be moved anywhere. During the fish season, the kelong are offered to the middle of the sea, but if the west wind season or not during the fish season, the kelong will be brought ashore. On the other hand, kelong cacak are usually not far from the beach or coast and cannot be moved and operated at night by using a lamp to catch cuttlefish or anchovies. This research was conducted on Kelong Cacak and Floating Kelong (pontoon) located in Berakit, Disability Telok Sebong, Kabubapen Bintan. The power generation system was built using the buoy method. Based on the research results, the wave power plant can be driven by sea waves with an average height of 6 cm and produces a voltage and continuously the voltage is not always stable. The maximum peak output voltage is up to 15 Volt DC; after knowing the test results, the power plant can supply as a charger for the battery in the kelong cacak of 0.8839 Volt DC with an average battery voltage of 10.052 Volt DC and total voltage charging is 0.37 Volt DC, with average battery voltage 11.4902 Volt DC on Floating Kelong (Pontoon).
