Conceptualizing Indonesia'S Ict-Based Energy Security Tracking System With Detailed Indicators From Smart City Extension

The purpose of this study is to conceptualize Indonesia's ICT-based energy security tracking system with detailed indicators of renewable energy (RE) and energy efficiency (EE) from the smart city extension. The opportunities for improvement to the energy security system is still wide open with the support of advances in information and communication technology (ICT) to integrate the internet and smart grid. The method refers to five main dimensions: availability, efficiency, affordability, sustainability, and governance. Then, how to link the concept of energy security with detailing indicator of RE and EE to the smart city. Empirically, energy security is a function of availability, efficiency, affordability, sustainability, and governance. The most important dimension is the Government (Go) to realize the interconnectivity and the information. If the Go has been realized, the other four dimensions will be easily obtained. With the development of ICT, the energy security status will certainly be more easily accessed anytime and anywhere by the stakeholders. The concept of a smart city usually integrated with the ICT infrastructure, especially for monitoring, management and decision-making tool. This research provides an overview of how the concept of energy security system is closely related to the implementation of the smart grid.
