This paper states why energy insecurity is a problem in Indonesia‚ how it was identified‚ its causes and the current responses to solve this problem. The engineering solutions would focus on sustainability and affordability‚ without compromising future generation energy needs in Indonesia. International Energy Agency defines energy security as the “uninterrupted availability of energy sources at affordable prices”. Currently Indonesia faces the lack of long term energy security. This is evident

Proposal Energy Audit: An energy audit is an inspection‚ survey and analysis of energy‚ flows for energy conservation in a building‚ process or system to reduce the amount of energy input into the system without negatively affecting the output(s). Energy audit identifies opportunities for financial savings by elimination of wasteful use of electricity‚ coal and fuel oil‚ without affecting the process or quality of product. Need for Energy Audit: It has been established that Energy savings

to have an ever-increasing need for more energy. Both households and industries require large amounts of power. At the same time our means of production face new problems. International treaties aim to limit the levels of pollution‚ global warming prompts action to reduce the output of carbon dioxide and several countries have decided to decommission old nuclear power plants and not build new ones. Such development brings about the need to replace old energy production methods with new ones. While

Energy crisis is a major challenge that should be overcome in modern times when people have embraced the use of electric devices in performing various activities. Consequently‚ the use of these electric devices leads to heavy consumption of electric power that calls for the adoption of energy efficient appliances. Energy efficiency refers to reduced use of energy in a given service (Dorsi & Krigger‚ 2008). The reduced consumption of energy is as a result of technological advancement as well as from

source of energy? Energy is essential for life. We use it in factories‚ in cars‚ airplanes‚ trains and ships. To heat food‚ light our houses etc. However‚ energy consumption is different in different countries. Since always human beings have used energy sources to do work or produce heat. Firstly‚ they used domestic animals or their physical forces. After‚ they used the wind and the water. Then‚ they exploited the use of fossil fuels and nuclear energy. In the near future we hope new energy sources

Alternative Energy Sources Fossil fuels will not last forever. If the human race wishes to continue to live the way we do‚ then we have to look at alternative energy sources such as: geothermal‚ nuclear‚ solar‚ wind‚ and hydroelectric energy. Alternative energy sources are not without faults‚ but along with faults‚ there are benefits and solutions to the issues. Geothermal energy is a well-proven energy resource that can be used to provide both heat and electricity. Geothermal energy is very predictable

potential energy to hit the target cup. Energy is the ability to do work. Potential energy is the energy of position and kinetic energy is the energy of motion. In order for the ramp to be successful‚ the ramp had to have the right amount of potential and kinetic energy. If you have too much potential energy than the marble would have too much kinetic energy and the marble would not land inside of the target cup‚ it will go right over the top of it. If you have too little potential energy then the

Energy in food lab report Aim: How much energy there is in food. Hypothesis: If I work out how much the water temperature has risen by burning food underneath water‚ the mass of the water and the mass of food I can work out how much energy was in the food. Introduction: This experiment is about how much energy there is in food. There are a few different types of energy‚ the one we are looking at is chemical energy. Some other types of energy are: thermal energy which is heat‚ magnetic energy which
