Abstract


Very remote rural locations, require the supply of electricity to be carried out with an off-grid system. The off-grid system development can be done by building fossil fuels power plants or by utilizing local renewable energy sources. The fuel price, the energy sources distant, and the environmental impacts make fossil fuel plants no longer be a priority to be developed in Indonesia. The Renewable energy generation provides the best alternative for the electricity supply. The renewable energy power plant which is being grown in Indonesia today is a micro-hydro power (MHP). Sustainability is a significant problem in micro-hydro power development in Indonesia. This study aims to formulate a set of indicators and evaluation criteria for micro-hydro power sustainability assessment. The research begins with a literature review related to sustainability both in terms of the power plant operations sustainability and sustainable development. The next, to identify indicators that determine viability. After the sustainability indicator is formed, the following is expert judgment. The research results obtained 54 indicators and evaluation criteria of micro-hydro power sustainability, in 5 dimensions: technical, economic, social, institutional, and environmental. Fifty-four indicators and evaluation criteria can be used to evaluate the micro-hydro power sustainability index.
