Abstract
Utilization of solar energy is limited in Indonesia, especially in the field of photovoltaic which is done by converting solar irradiation into electrical energy using solar panels. The electrical energy produced by solar panels can be used for cooking process using electric stoves to warm the food in the meatball seller. The benefits of electric stoves is it can be use to stabilize temperature meatball soup, so that the meatballs always expand and are ready to sell. The temperature used to maintain the quality of the meatballs is ranging from 70-80 ℃. The electric stove can stabilize the soup as much as 10 liters using a 160 Watt dimmer input using 120 V voltage and output current of 0.74 A. The installation using 4 solar panels and each panel has a power generated of 100 Wp. The performance of the Off Grid 400 WP PLTS has been sufficient to meet the need for an electric stove that operates for 6 hours.
