The National Research and Innovation Agency (BRIN) is currently\ndeveloping Adsorbed Natural Gas (ANG) innovation, which is projected to\nserve as an alternative to Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) for\nhouseholds.<\/p>\n
The Head of BRIN, Arif Satria, stated that the technology, which\nutilises Metal Organic Framework (MOF), will provide an extremely high\nlevel of usage efficiency. \u201cThere will be a twofold efficiency, almost\n1.5 to two times higher, and this will represent an energy revolution in\nIndonesia,\u201d he said during the Energy Week 2026 event in Jakarta on\nTuesday.<\/p>\n
Arif provided an example where, if a household typically consumes one\nconventional 3kg gas cylinder within ten days, ANG technology could\nextend that duration to 20\u201325 days. This breakthrough, environmentally\nfriendly innovation is being developed collaboratively with a renowned\nexpert from Kyoto, Professor Susumu Kitagawa, through the establishment\nof a sister laboratory in Serpong, South Tangerang.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe ask for your prayers so that by 2027, this innovation can be\nlaunched and subsequently distributed to the public,\u201d said Arif.<\/p>\n
According to the Head of BRIN, the development of this new gas energy\nsource is part of BRIN\u2019s intensive efforts to fulfil the mandate of\nnational energy independence and sovereignty to match developed nations.\nHe noted that strong innovation, a conducive ecosystem, and a framework\nconnecting laboratories, universities, industry, government, and the\ncommunity are essential for national energy transformation.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe development of renewable energy is one of our important\npriorities, as we possess immense potential in solar, geothermal, wind,\nbioenergy, and various other clean energy sources,\u201d added Arif\nSatria.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, the Minister of Higher Education, Science, and Technology,\nBrian Yuliarto, assessed that the technology downstreaming steps led by\nBRIN and university researchers represent the most sensible and\nsustainable solution. \u201cWith strong research, superior talent, and\nindustry involvement, God willing, Indonesia will be able to build\nenergy independence, strengthen national industry, and progress towards\nbecoming a developed nation,\u201d said Brian Yuliarto.<\/p>", "url": "https:\/\/jawawa.id\/newsitem\/brin-developing-innovation-to-replace-3kg-lpg-claimed-to-be-twice-as-cost-effective-1790070996", "image": "" }, "sponsor": "Okusi Associates", "sponsor_url": "https:\/\/okusiassociates.com" }
