PEKULURAN

MICRO-HYDRO ELECTRIC
POWER PLANT

By Sudargana & Karnoto

Energy & Natural Resources Research Centre
Diponegoro University
Central Java Indonesia
BACKGROUND:
1. LACK IN ENERGY
2. GLOBAL WARMING, CO2 FROM COMBUSTION
3. NATIONAL MEAN ELECTRICITY PROGRAM: UP
TO 2020 MOST 5 % NATIONAL ENERGY WAS
SUPLIED BY NEW/RENEWABLE ENERGY
4. SOROSIDO RIVER: ENERGY POTENTIAL, 1.4
M3/S FLOW RATE, 23 DEG SLOPE
5. PEKULURAN IS THE ISOLATED AND UN-
ELECTRIFIED VILLAGE, 62 FARMER FAMILIES
AND LOW EDUCATED INHABITANCE
6. GOVERNMENT FUNDING
OBJECTIVES:
 PUSH THE NATIONAL MEAN
ELECTRIVICATION PROGRAM (RUKN)
 EXPAND THE NEW AND RENEWABLE
ENERGY SUPPLY.
 PUSH RURAL/PEKULURAN EDUCATION &
SOCIAL ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT.
EXISTING DATA:
 1.4 M3/S SOROSIDO WATER FLOW RATE
 23o RIVER SLOPING
 62 FRAMILIES UN-ELECTRIFIED BY PLN
 ABOUT 5 PICO-HYDRO @ 100 Watt, FOR
10 FAMILIES, THERE WAS VERRY LOW
PEKULURAN ELECTRIFICATION
PRE ACTIVITY:
 SURVEY ON HYDRO POTENTIAL ENERGY
IN WHOLE CENTRAL JAVA.
 FEASIBILITY STUDY ON MICRO-HYDRO
ELECTRIC POWER PLANT IN BATANG AND
PEKALONGAN REGENCY, ESPECIALY THE
ISOLATED VILLAGE.
 DESIGN MICRO-HYDRO POWER PLANT
ON SIJERAH (BATANG) AND PEKULURAN
(PEKALONGAN)
WISHFULL:
 BUILD 37.5 KVA MICRO-HYDRO ELECTRIC
POWER PLANT
 ELECTRIFY PEKULURAN INHABITANCE
WITH 200 Watts/FAMILY
 TO PUSH SOCIAL-ECONOMIC AND
EDUCATION DEVELOPMENT OF 62
PEKULURAN FAMILY
 PROJECT ACTIVITY:
TO BUILD:
 50 M WIDE DAM ON SOROSIDO RIVER
 126 M LONG, 0.4 M3 FLOW RATE WATER CANAL
 2 X 3 X 13 M FORE-BAY
 12 M HEAD, 14” PENSTOCK DIAMETER
 BANKI MITCHEL CROSS FLOW TURBIN
 2 WAYS MECHANICAL TRANSMISSION FROM 188 TO 1500
RPM
 37.5 KVA ELECTRIC INDUCTION GENERATOR WITH
DUMMY LOAD
 POWER HOUSE
 750 M ELECTRIC DISTRIBUTION CABLE
 ETC.
 SUSTAINABILITY:
 TO OPERATE THIS PLANT PEKULURAN
INHABITANT MAKE SOCIAL
COOPERATION TO MANAGE TGE
FUNDING, OPERATING, MAINTENANCE
AND DEVELOPMENT.
 DIPONEGORO UNIVERSITY RESEARCH
CENTRE OF ENERGY AND NATURAL
RESOURCES WILL BE ASISTANCE ON
SUSTAIN ACTIVITY.
