OPTIMIZATION OF RENEWABLE ENERGY AS RESOURCES FOR ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY NATIONAL ENERGY SECURITY

Abstract

Carbon gas emissions that come from the use of non-renewable energy have a bad impact for the environmental. Comes the idea of transforming Renewable Energy as the main energy source because it is more environmentally friendly. This is a challenge for Indonesian, because Indonesia has the potential for Renewable Energy which can be utilized as the main source of national energy security. For the proposal to be successful, it must be accompanied by qualified regulations. However, the problem today that Indonesia does not have specific independent rules regulating Renewable Energy. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the potentials of Indonesian’s Renewable Energy as an alternative to the main source of national energy security. Besides, it is also to analyze legal support so that the environmentally friendly Renewable Energy optimization program has the right legal basis. The research method in this paper uses normative research methods. The research approach of this paper uses a conceptual approach related to Renewable Energy. The results show that Indonesia had big potential of Renewable Energy as the main source of national energy security. The environment-friendly Renewable Energy will be realized as a source of national energy security.
