Abstract

<p>Maratua Island is a strategic island in Indonesia and has big potential of tourism, but its electrification ratio is merely about 37.03 %. The preliminary study was aimed to design hybrid system combining fossil-based energy technology and renewable energy for Maratua Island. The preliminary study applies HOMER version 2.68 beta. HOMER is a computer model that simplifies the task of designing hybrid renewable microgrids, whether remote or attached to a larger grid. The hybrid system with a lowest total of NPC (Net Present Cost) is the system combining diesel powerplant and photovoltaics with battery. </p><p><strong>Keywords</strong>: Electricity; homer; maratua; renewable energy.</p>
