Desain Dan Optimisasi Stand Alone Pv Panel System Untuk Budidaya Udang Vannamei Pada Kolam Bundar Di Kabupaten Lombok Utara

Abstract

Cultivating vannamei shrimp using round ponds is an alternative way of cultivation to 
minimize the significant investment costs. One of the obstacles in vannamei shrimp cultivation is the 
availability of Dissolve Oxygen (DO) in water. By utilizing solar energy which is converted into 
electrical energy, DO levels can be maintained with an aeration system that utilizes solar energy. 
North Lombok Regency has the potential for solar energy which reaches 4.91 kWh / m2 / day with a 
minimum clearness index of 0.446 which is very potential to be utilized. The purpose of this research 
is to find the optimal design for a stand alone panel PV system to serve the electrical energy needs 
of vannamei shrimp farming in round ponds. The method used is to calculate the most optimal 
design with HOMER (Hybrid Optimization Model for Electric Renewables) software to be able to serve the average energy requirement of 38.2 kWh / day. From the analysis, it was found that the 
most optimal designs were the PV panel brand A 16.8 kW, the PV panel brand B 1 kW and the 200 
Ah battery with a total of 104 units.
