Abstract
Solar Power Plants are a form of renewable energy that harness sunlight to generate electricity through solar panels. This research designs a PLTS system for use at the Labuan Steam Power Plant (PLTU) of PT. PLN (Persero), aimed at reducing the plant's own electricity consumption. This study evaluates the design and installation of a PLTS system on a 7200 m² area at the Labuan PLTU and conducts a technical and economic comparison between On-Grid and Off-Grid PLTS systems. The research methods include field surveys, shading potential measurements, and design simulations using PVSyst software. The results show that the On-Grid PLTS installation at the Labuan PLTU Administration Building is technically and economically feasible, with a BenefitCost Ratio (BCR) of 1.20 and a Payback Period (PP) of 16.93 years. The implementation of this PLTS system has the potential to reduce carbon emissions by 84,187 tons of CO₂e per year, supporting PT. PLN's program to achieve the 23% renewable energy mix target by 2025.
