2026-09-28T13:52:38+08:00

The transition to green energy is a strategic agenda for Indonesia in responding to climate change and high dependence on fossil fuels. Although Indonesia has significant renewable energy potential, its utilization rate remains relatively low. This situation indicates that the challenges of the green energy transition are not only technical and economic, but also influenced by social factors, particularly education, social acceptance, and technology adoption. This study aims to analyze the relationship between education level, social acceptance, and the adoption of green energy technology in Indonesia. The study focuses on the role of education in shaping energy literacy and awareness, the dynamics of social acceptance of renewable energy technology, and the factors that hinder and encourage the adoption of green energy technology within the context of national policy. The research method used is a systematic literature review. Data were collected from scientific articles indexed by Scopus, Web of Science, and SINTA, as well as government policy reports and publications from relevant international institutions, covering the last five years. The analysis was conducted descriptively and analytically by grouping the literature findings into themes of education, social acceptance, and technology adoption. The results show that education level has a significant influence on increasing energy literacy and positive public attitudes toward green energy. Social acceptance has been shown to be a key factor influencing the successful implementation of renewable energy technologies, particularly through perceptions of benefits, risks, and distributive equity. However, the adoption of green energy technologies still faces obstacles such as high initial investment costs, limited infrastructure, and inconsistent policies. This research confirms that accelerating the green energy transition in Indonesia requires a holistic and integrated policy approach, combining strengthening education, increasing social acceptance, and sustainable institutional support.

The data were analyzed using the Importance Performance Analysis (IPA) method, while validity and reliability tests were conducted using SPSS. The results showed that the passenger service conformity level on KMP. Lohoraung was 48.38% and KMP. Tarusi was 51.61%, indicating that both vessels have not yet met the Minimum Service Standards (SPM). Meanwhile, vehicle services were categorized as good, with conformity levels of 85.18% on KMP. Lohoraung and 81.48% on KMP. Tarusi. The ship operational aspect achieved a conformity level of 100% in operational schedules, berthing time, loading and unloading processes, and sailing speed indicators. The IPA analysis revealed that the main service attributes requiring improvement include lifeboat conditions, medical rooms, passenger toilets, prayer rooms, lighting facilities, and nursing rooms, as these attributes have high importance but low performance levels. The validity and reliability test results indicated that all research instruments were valid and reliable, making them suitable for use in this study. This research is expected to serve as an evaluation reference for port management and ferry operators in improving ferry transportation services at Likupang Ferry Port.
