Abstract
The use of energy by society is increasing and is not matched by the availability of raw materials. Fuel oil and coal are dwindling and even running out. Therefore, to overcome this problem the government issued Presidential Regulation No. 5 of 2006 concerning the National Energy Policy, where the utilization of biofuels is targeted at 2% in 2010 and 5% in 2025. To overcome this, methods are carried out by using renewable fuels and processing residual production materials such as the use of bagasse waste as fuel. Electrical energy sources from PLN and power plants in Indonesia are the main sources of electricity distribution used by consumers (industry). At PG. Kebon Agung has its own 4 steam power plants to meet the electrical energy needs needed to drive production machinery. Utilization of bagasse has the potential as a renewable fuel as a substitute for coal to gain resource and cost efficiency. In this study, the authors attach a cost comparison to the use of bagasse with other fuels, a comparison of the use of electrical energy from PLTU with PLN, and waste treatment to get efficiency and benefits in terms of costs and natural resources. With this research, it is hoped that readers can save resources and increase the efficiency of using biomass fuels.
