TY - JOUR AU1 - Rachmadhani, D R AU2 - Ilham, AB - More electricity infrastructures to serve off-grid or mini-grid solutions have been installed to become the best choice for rural areas to increase the electrification ratio. The Indonesian government uses this ratio as a primary indicator for measuring the range of energy supply. The electrification ratio of Indonesia reached 99.2% in 2020. However, this seemingly bright achievement must be followed by improving the quality of access to electricity. The solution to this challenge is digital transformation to modernize data and perform analysis in the network ecosystem to create an intelligent utility system that will improve the quality of access to electricity. The simulation of the utilization of SEMons shows a significant decrease in the LCOE (Levelized Cost of Energy) of the solar PV power plant of around 14.52% compared to the existing condition with the manual monitoring method. For the units built-in 2017, there is a reduction of LCOE from 0.1034 USD/kWh to 0.0866 USD/kWh. This decrease in the LCOE value indicates a reduction in fixed Operation & Maintenance costs due to the optimized predictive maintenance to improve the availability of units.
