摘要

The development plan of a nickel smelting industry in the North MalukuNorth maluku province requires a high supply of electricity. On the other hand, the low availability of clean electricity and the disparity in electricity supply between islands continue to be challenges for the power sector in North MalukuNorth maluku. Hence, there is an urgency to explore renewable energy, for instance tidal currents energy as a renewable energyRenewable energy source, to address the energy availability issues while aligning with sustainable development goals (SDGs) 7, 9, 10, and 13. Therefore, further studies are needed to explore the technical and financialFinancial analysis aspects of tidal currents energy development.
