Implementasi dan Edukasi Trainer Set Panel Surya Untuk Praktikum di SMK 1 Gunung Sindur Bogor

Abstract

In recent years, the demand for renewable energy, especially solar power, has been increasing, as global efforts to reduce dependence on fossil energy sources have increased. For this reason, it is important for educational institutions to integrate this technology into their curriculum, so that the younger generation is ready to face challenges and opportunities in the field of renewable energy. This Community Service aims to introduce renewable energy technology, especially solar panels, to vocational school students through practicum tools that are easy to use and understand so that they can improve their understanding, practical skills in the installation and maintenance of solar panel systems. This trainer set consists of solar panels, batteries, regulators, and electronic devices that are used to store and transmit energy. Students will be involved in solar panel system assembly activities, battery setup, and how to read and monitor the energy generated results. The implementation process began with training for teachers at SMK-1 Gunung Sindur, so that they understand the use of this trainer set in depth and can guide students in carrying out practicums. Furthermore, students will be directly involved in practicum activities held in the school laboratory. Students will conduct experiments on the efficiency of solar panels under various lighting conditions and learn about the maintenance of solar panel systems so that they can function optimally. In addition to practicum activities, this also includes educational sessions on the importance of renewable energy in preserving the environment and reducing carbon emissions. This training also includes material on the basic principles of solar power, the potential of solar energy in Indonesia, as well as the application of this technology in daily life and industry. Thus, the program contributes to creating a young generation that is ready to face global challenges in the field of energy and the environment.

Dalam beberapa tahun terakhir, permintaan energi terbarukan terutama tenaga surya semakin meningkat, seiring upaya global untuk mengurangi ketergantungan pada sumber energi fosil. Untuk itu, penting bagi institusi pendidikan untuk mengintegrasikan teknologi ini dalam kurikulum mereka, agar generasi muda siap menghadapi tantangan dan peluang dalam bidang energi terbarukan. Pengabdian kepada Masyarakat ini bertujuan untuk memperkenalkan teknologi energi terbarukan, khususnya panel surya, kepada siswa SMK melalui perangkat praktikum yang mudah digunakan dan dipahami sehingga dapat meningkatkan pemahaman, keterampilan praktis dalam pemasangan serta pemeliharaan sistem panel surya. Trainer set ini terdiri dari panel surya, baterai, regulator, dan perangkat elektronik yang digunakan untuk menyimpan dan mengalirkan energi. Siswa akan dilibatkan dalam kegiatan perakitan sistem panel surya, pengaturan baterai, cara membaca dan memonitor hasil energi yang dihasilkan. Proses implementasi dimulai dengan pelatihan bagi guru pengajar di SMK-1 Gunung Sindur, agar mereka memahami penggunaan trainer set ini secara mendalam dan dapat membimbing siswa dalam melaksanakan praktikum. Selanjutnya, siswa akan dilibatkan langsung dalam kegiatan praktikum yang diselenggarakan di laboratorium sekolah. Siswa akan melakukan eksperimen mengenai efisiensi panel surya dalam berbagai kondisi pencahayaan dan mempelajari perawatan sistem panel surya agar dapat berfungsi dengan optimal. Selain kegiatan praktikum ini juga mencakup sesi edukasi tentang pentingnya energi terbarukan dalam menjaga kelestarian lingkungan dan mengurangi emisi karbon. Pelatihan ini juga mencakup materi mengenai prinsip dasar tenaga surya, potensi energi surya di Indonesia, serta penerapan teknologi ini dalam kehidupan sehari-hari dan industri. Dengan demikian, program ini berkontribusi dalam menciptakan generasi muda yang siap untuk menghadapi tantangan global dalam bidang energi dan lingkungan.
