Techno-economic feasibility analysis of photovoltaic charging station for electric boats in Sabangko island

Indonesia is the largest archipelago in the world. There are thousands of islands that are far from the grid that need access to electricity. As a result, PV systems have been installed in many remote islands. However, most of these PV systems are under-utilized producing large amounts of unused excess energy. Since most of the inhabitants of these remote islands depend on fishing for their livelihoods, an idea was proposed to use excess energy from a PV system to power an electric boat. This thesis presents a techno-economic feasibility analysis of a PV charging station for electric boats using Sabangko Island in Makassar as an exemplary location. A detailed analysis of the existing system shows that there is enough excess energy to charge several boat batteries. The economic analysis shows that the LCOE of the project is quite low relative to other off-grid projects and the price of renting and charging a battery is still affordable. Additionally, a stand-alone PV charging station business is shown to be still economically viable.
