Abstract
Magelang City with limited natural resources encourages its regional government to be able to develop its existing potential from renewable energy. One of the works that has been produced, namely Smart On Grid Actuator (SOGA) is the result of the development of the Research and Development Agency for renewable energy. Meanwhile Public Street Lighting in the City of Magelang still uses electricity from the National Electricity Company. This study aims to analyze the policy and economy due to the application of SOGA on public street lighting in the city of Magelang. The primary data source was obtained from SOGA, while the secondary source was the amount of Public Street Lighting in Magelang City. The analysis was carried out with qualitative and quantitative descriptive. The results obtained from SOGA data are predicted to be 10-20% for the efficiency of electricity use. If it is applied to public street lighting in the city of Magelang, the efficiency of the economy is significant, but the implementation of SOGA is very conducive to regional policies.
