Study of the potential of microhydro electric power plant in Universitas Bangka Belitung’s Embung

Year: 2024

Type: conference-paper

Abstract: In today’s world, electrical energy has become a fundamental need for people to perform various activities. The search for energy sources that are ecofriendly, zero waste, cost-effective, and sustainable is a major focus for researchers developing new power generation technologies. Among these, the microhydro power plant stands out as a promising technology with these desired attributes for generating electricity. This study aims to assess the water flow rate and the head of the water in UBB’s Embung from July to August 2024 as part of its potential analysis. The results indicate that UBB’s Embung has the potential to support a microhydro power plant, with a maximum estimated output of 98.45 kW.
