Summary: | Indonesia as a tropical country has abundant potential of solar energy. The Indonesian government is very serious about implementing efforts towards net zero emissions which are continuously encouraged. Using solar energy is one of the solutions to reduce greenhouse gas emissions use of fossil fuels. One of the efforts made is to apply technology to replace the propulsion system of ships powered by fossil fuel engines to electricity from solar energy. This research takes the case of a conventional engine-powered “Sandek” fishing boat converted to a solar-powered electric motor in West Sulawesi. The aim is to compare the level of profit and return on investment before and after conventional motor ships are replaced with electric powered ships. The research method used is a descriptive method with investment parameters including NPV, IRR, and Payback Period. The results hopefully can be used as a reference for investment who will develop the transition from conventional motor boats to electric boats. The conclusions of this research can be used as a model for the sustainable use of electric fishing boats in Indonesia. |
