GIS-based mapping potential sites for micro-hydro power plants in West Sumatera

Abstract

The increased energy demand, global warming and other environmental problems caused by the use of fossil fuels have brought severe challenges to West Sumatera, it's make the government Province has set targets to improve the share of renewable energy in the energy structure and promote the construction of hydropower plants. In this research, we are develops geographic information system (GIS) based clustering. Data was collected from open map-servers and geocoded by open data kit package and data geocoding tools. The Web-based system is designed used a program language of Preprocessor Hypertext (PHP) and Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) which connected to PostGIS database to store the data. The system provides Web-based GIS informed about the location of potential micro hydro power plant each village in West Sumatera and analyst tool for pattern detection through K-means clustering. The result of this research, through which end users can detect micro-hydro power plant distribution pattern based cluster selecting area, and spatial test parameters, which can be used to know the consumer energy usability in the province of West Sumatera.
