Energy Audit at the Manpower and Transmigration Office of Manokwari Regency

Audit Energi pada Dinas Tenaga Kerja dan Transmigrasi Kabupaten Manokwari

Abstract

Electrical energy is a fundamental necessity that is vital in supporting various activities, including in the industrial, business, and office sectors. Along with the rapid growth of these sectors, electrical energy consumption has significantly increased. However, this increase is frequently accompanied by energy waste due to a lack of public awareness regarding the importance of energy efficiency. Therefore, an energy audit is necessary to evaluate the efficiency of electricity usage, such as at the Department of Manpower and Transmigration (Disnakertrans) Building of Manokwari Regency, West Papua Province. This study aims to calculate the Energy Use Intensity (EUI / IKE) and formulate recommendations for Energy Saving Opportunities (ESO / PHE) to reduce electrical energy consumption in the building. The results showed that the total electrical energy consumption based on load groups reached 4,074.78 kWh/month. Based on these results, the monthly EUI value obtained was 4.88 kWh/m²/month. This value indicates that the electrical energy consumption at the Manokwari Regency Disnakertrans Building is classified as highly efficient.
