<p><strong>Abstract.</strong> The world has been alarmed with the global warming effects. Global warming has been a distress towards the environment, thus shorten the Earth’s lifespan. It is a challenging task to reduce the global warming effects in a short period, knowing that the human population is increasing along with the electricity and energy demand. In order to reduce the effects, renewable energy is presented as an alternative method to produce energy in a way that will not harm the environment. Oil palm is one of the agricultural crops that produces huge amount of biomass which can be processed and used as a renewable energy source. In 2016, Malaysia has reported over 5 million hectares of land were covered by oil palm plantations. Placing Malaysia as the second largest country of oil palm producer in the world has given it an advantage to produce renewable energy source. However, there is a need to monitor the sustainability of oil palm plantations in Malaysia via effective mapping approaches. This study utilised two different platforms (open source and commercial) using a machine learning algorithm namely Support Vector Machine (SVM) to perform oil palm mapping. An open source Python programming-based technique utilising Scikit-learn module was performed to map the oil palm distribution and the result produced had an overall accuracy of 91.39%. To support and validate the efficiency of the Python programming-based image classification, a commercial remote sensing software (ENVI) was used and compared by implementing the same SVM algorithm and the result showed an overall accuracy of 98.21%.</p>

Besides producing CPO and KPO, oil palm also produces a lot of waste. Oil palm waste can be managed and utilized. This study aims to determine how oil palm waste is managed, the authority of local governments to regulate oil palm waste management in South Kalimantan Province. Third, what is the concept of future local government policies in utilizing oil palm waste as a new and renewable energy development in South Kalimantan? The research method used is normative juridical research, the research that is focused on examining the application of the rules or norms in positive law, analyzing in-depth and holistically, from all aspects comprehensively, sourced from library research using legal materials, namely primary legal materials, secondary legal materials, and tertiary legal materials, to answer regulatory issues in the legislation regarding the Policy on the Use of Oil palm Waste as New and Renewable Energy in South Kalimantan Province. The result shows that Indonesia has been able to create renewable energy from the oil palm industry. However, the government needs to regulate the use of oil palm shell waste through local regulations and policies. With the participation of policymakers, and focus for development. It can creates jobs, increase and develop disadvantaged areas and in the end will reduce the level of poverty.

Abstract– Currently the main products of oil palm are mainly used as the producer of vegetable oil. The waste originally becoming problems for environment can be used as renewable energy. One of the solutions is by making use of oil palm waste as the fuel of Steam Power Plant. The objective of this thesis is to identify the number of production of fresh fruit branch and waste generated as well as to calculate the potential energy of oil palm waste as the fuel of Biomass Steam Power Plant. The solid wastes of oil palm studied were fibre and shell. Every ton of fresh fruit branch produced 13% fibre with the energy of 2,637 kCal/kg and 6.5% shell with the energy of 4,105 kCal/kg. The area of oil palm plantations that have already had plantation business permit in Landak District is 451,903.06 Ha. The research results show that the potential fibre and shell that can produced by 5 oil palm factories in Landak District, with the production capacity of 225 Ton TBS/hour during the last 6 years until 2016 reached 344,490,729 tons. The potential energy produced is 1,240,590,477 MWh. Based on the Regulation of the Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources No. 12 of 2017 on the Use of Renewable Energy for the Provision of Power, the basic cost of power plant for West Kalimantan Area is 1,406.75. Therefore, the remaining energy ready to use or sell (excess power) after reduced by the factory use is 1,186,885,214 MWh, and the estimated revenue from power sale generated by 5 units of oil palm factories is Rp 1,669,650,774,795. From five samples of oil palm factories, it can be used to estimate the potential energy from oil palm waste in the entire area of Landak District, based on the plant area that can produce the yield and not produce the yield yet. Therefore, the oil palm area of 113,800.59 Ha, it can be produced estimated potential energy of 2,033,268,169 kWh/year and estimated revenue of Rp 2,860,299,996,037,-. The potential energy from oil palm waste will increase year by year along with the increasing procution capacity, oil palm plantation area and increasing oil palm factory construction so that it can increase energy diversification in Landak District.
