Abstract

Ogan Komering Ulu Timur (OKUT) regency is a national rice-producing in South Sumatra Province. The use of modern agricultural technology has resulted in a significant increase in rice yields, namely: in 2019, 2.60 million tons of paddy dry milled grain will become 2.74 million tons in 2020. This number increases every year, which has an impact on increasing solids. Waste by paddy dry milled grain is husks straw. The percentage of husk is 20% by paddy dry milled grain. In 2020, OKUT produced 548,000 tons of husks. This husk is a potential source of biomass energy for power generation. This paper reviews the possibility of constructing a biomass power plant from rice husks in OKUT. In 2030, it is estimated that the amount of electricity that can be sold to PLN is 1.05 GW, equal to IDR. 1419.6 B or USD 97.903.
