Energy Resilience Assessment by Using SEM Approach in the Central Java Province, Indonesia

Abstract

Energy is one of the critical infrastructure for urban and rural development. Although planning and management of the energy provision tend to centralized, the role of local stakeholder is very significant to achieve energy resilience. An assessment of energy resilience is not only related to the disaster condition, but also associated to any effort to solve of uncertainties in normal condition such as supply shortages, low level of ratio electrification, consistency of provision and standardization. This study defined that energy resilience are influenced by five factors namely, stakeholder effort to understand their needs, effort to understand process of energy provision, effort to understand the facility of energy provision, effort to understand efficiency energy consumption and the behaviour to achieve, and the local government concern. By using SEM approach this study examined a model of the five factors that affect resilience energy. According to the assessment from the 8,528 villages in Central Java province of Indonesia, this study founded that the five factors were evidently influence in energy resilience achievement.
