Abstract
This article will explore energy conservation as part of the national energy policy in Indonesia. Although the government has implemented a strategy for implementing energy conservation by applying energy management to the industrial sector, energy conservation still has challenges and obstacles in making it happen. By analyzing energy conservation policies and understanding the Maqasid Al-shariah framework which is the operational foundation of Islamic economics on the themes of economic energy, this paper concludes that energy conservation as part of religious obligations implemented in energy consumption behavior, because energy is the main source for sustainability human life. Therefore, moral values become the main foundation in energy conservation behavior as a reflection of the achievement of the objectives of Islamic law and energy management as a systematic effort to utilize energy in industry, not only to increase productivity through energy effciency and conservation but also to maintain sustainability towards the energy needs themselves.
Highlights
One of the most severe challenges for humans today is energy engineering that leads to resource depletion and environmental damage, so this encourages developing energy engineering that is in harmony with nature (Wall, 2002)
This article will explore about energy conservation in Indonesia which includes the discussion of: first, a model of sustainable energy conservation in the Islamic economy that is linked to sustainable energy development policies in Indonesia; second, moral values in the energy conservation behavior as an implementation of the religious obligations of each person accompanied by a comparison between the 5 basic principles in the maqasid al-shariah and the 5 principles of sustainable development goals (SDGs) that are operationalized in energy conservation and values the morals of the Qur’an concerning energy conservation; and third, energy management in the industry for energy conservation in Indonesia
This article has been prepared in the following steps: first, identification of problems regarding the Maqasid Al-shariah relationship, energy conservation, energy management, and sustainable development in Indonesia; secondly, data collection related to energy conservation and energy management policies in Indonesia obtained from official government documents in 2018 and 2019, as well as sustainable energy development policies at the Ministry of Energy, Resources and Minerals of the Republic of Indonesia; third, the collection, study, and analysis of traditional sources in the field of Islamic economics and Islamic law, especially the concept of maqasid al-shariah and maslahah; fourth, analysis of energy conservation and energy management policies for industry and sustainable energy conservation in Indonesia from an Islamic economic perspective; and fifth, draw conclusions from discussions on this study
Summary
One of the most severe challenges for humans today is energy engineering that leads to resource depletion and environmental damage, so this encourages developing energy engineering that is in harmony with nature (Wall, 2002). Behavior in an organizational environment can pose special challenges for people who want to promote energy conservation because employees usually do not have direct financial incentives to reduce energy use and rarely have access to information about their level of consumption. These behavioral interventions have the overall potential to reduce energy use and their eligibility which is implemented in future organizational settings. This article will explore about energy conservation in Indonesia which includes the discussion of: first, a model of sustainable energy conservation in the Islamic economy that is linked to sustainable energy development policies in Indonesia; second, moral values in the energy conservation behavior as an implementation of the religious obligations of each person accompanied by a comparison between the 5 basic principles in the maqasid al-shariah (the objectives of Islamic law) and the 5 principles of sustainable development goals (SDGs) that are operationalized in energy conservation and values the morals of the Qur’an concerning energy conservation; and third, energy management in the industry for energy conservation in Indonesia
