Abstract

Renewable energy is currently promoted to substitute the ever-diminishing fossil fuel. Indonesia has a high potential for solar energy, which can be implemented in every sector of everyday life, including building-integrated PV systems such as hospital applications. This paper presents the design, economic feasibility, and environmental impact of a PV system applied as the alternative power source for a hospital in Palembang, Indonesia. The economic feasibility and environmental impact are given by simulation using System Advisory Model (SAM) and SimaPro for LCA analysis. The power produced by the PV system in the study shows that the implementation of the PV system as the alternative source to supply ventilators and monitors in ICU rooms is profitable considering how expensive and short life-time of the UPS used previously as the source.
