Abstract
Makassar is the capital city of South Sulawesi Province in Indonesia, is a city that has dozens of small inhabited islands. This geographical condition causes the distribution of electrification for islands in Makassar City to be uneven and forces the government to supply diesel power plant (Diesel-PP) to these islands as the main source of electrical energy for their electricity needs. One of them is Barrang Caddi Island. This island is not electrified by State Electricity Enterprise or PLN Makassar City. The Makassar City Government has fulfilled the electricity needs on Barrang Caddi Island in the form of Diesel-PP. However, the operation of the diesel generator set is only limited to 8 hours at night which is managed independently by the island community. For this reason, the hope of fulfilling electricity for 24 hours (day and night) on Barrang Caddi Island is by utilizing the island’s new and renewable energy (NRE) potential. One source of NRE is energy from the sun. This paper shows the potential of renewable energy, especially solar energy on Barrang Caddi Island to meet the electrical energy of the island’s people.
