Abstract:
Electricity for tourism accommodation/ villas in a tourist village in Bali is mostly for air conditioning (AC), refrigerators, and swimming pool pumps. The cost of energy bills from tourism accommodation businesses is in the second position after labour costs. This study aims to obtain target of solar energy optimization which is integrated with a power source from the national grid (PLN). With this integration method, a reliable energy supply system is obtained in tourism accommodation so that the service can compete with five-star hotel accommodations. This research is an experimental study and the expected results are the percentage of renewable energy optimization in the use of building energy and the other result is energy saving achievement can be obtained. However, in this study still focus on designing a green energy model for tourist accommodation and the result obtained that the solar energy can substitute as much as 17,5% of the total energy demand from the national grid e
lectricity (PLN). Further research will develop the solar energy and cost analysis in detail to achieve the net zero energy building in the tourist accommodation.
