Abstract: Stove is a cooking utensil for households to provide food to meet daily needs. LPG gas stoves are very
commonly used by various groups because they’re easy to buy and in terms of prices are very affordable
because of subsidies from government which makes gas prices very affordable because government still
provides subsidies for LPG for 3-kilogram. The government is now encouraging the Import-Based Energy
Transfer Program into Domestic-Based Energy through the Conversion of LPG Stoves to Induction Stoves to
support National Energy Security, and the conversion of LPG stoves to Induction cookers as one of the
strategies to reduce LPG imports. In previous studies, the performance of gas stoves and induction cookers
was tested, comparing energy consumption and economic aspects by testing them in boiling 1 liter of water.
From the results of research on technical aspects, it states that an induction stove can replace a 3-kilogram
LPG stove, the use of an induction cooker with a 2-burner design (1,000 Watt and 1,800 Watt), cooking costs
are more efficient Rp. 45,770/month for the power group of 450VA and Rp. 30,190/month for 900VA power
group households. The economic aspect has an impact on reducing LPG imports to meet national energy
needs.
1 INTRODUCTION
Stoves are daily necessities that are used by the
community as a tool to provide various foods to meet
basic needs. The use of gas stoves is very commonly
used by various groups because they are easy to buy
and in terms of cost are very affordable due to
subsidies from the government which causes gas
prices to be very affordable (Pawenary, 2020).
In Indonesia's efforts towards the transition of Net
Zero Emmision and supporting environmentally
friendly campaigns, the Government is now
encouraging the Transfer of Import-Based Energy to
Domestic-Based Energy through the Conversion of
LPG Stoves to Induction Stoves to support National
Energy Security, and the conversion of LPG stoves to
Induction stoves is one of the strategies to reduce
LPG lmpor tubes of 3 kg, which began with through
the movement of 1 million induction stove users in
2021 and starting in 2022, it will increase by 2 million
/ year so that it reaches 18.2 million induction stove
users in 2030. The Government's strategy in the LPG
stove conversion program to Induction stoves in
addition to aiming to save lpg import costs is also to
save significant LPG subsidies, because LPG
consumption in the household sector (LPG stoves)
has a portion of almost 96% of the total national LPG
consumption.
Based on the description above, it is necessary for
researchers to answer the problems mentioned above
through the analysis of technical aspects and
economic aspects of electrical energy consumption in
the induction stove program so that the public can
know the differences and advantages of using these
stoves.
This research will be conducted to compare and
the benefits of induction stoves and gas stoves such
as the amount of energy consumption and the costs
required in their use.
2 METHODOLOGY
The testing methods that will be carried out in this
study are as follows:
a. Heating water from temperature ± 20 °C to ±
90 °C;
b. Water mass weighing ± 2500 grams;
