Abstract

Since the hybrid electrical system introduced in 2007 on Kapas Island, not much research has been done to determine how the effectiveness of this system to the people on the island. The Main purpose of this study was to identify and examine the effectiveness of this system in solving problems experienced among residents on Remote area. Most islands in Malaysia use the generator and fuel as a major source of electricity. These sources give rise to various problems such as electric source provided is very limited cause difficulties among residents to survive their daily life, as well accompanies such as hotels while the fuel give a water pollution to the remote area. Implementation of hybrid electrical system is one of initiative government to provide better utility in remote area. Furthermore this study developed qualitative method and quantitative to get answers and information for my research objectives. I will be interviewing the agencies involved directly and indirectly, to supply electric on the island, I will also use the questionnaire to be distributed to island residents and tourists who use electric the island directly. Result of this study showed that this system alone did not efficient been used especially on monsoon session which is early October until end of January every year. Even though, this system also give much advantages to solve the problem on provide good utilities among resident on island, since this system implementation, resident did not face water pollution more and get better utilities 24 hours. A utility bill is one of variable that get highest correlation between among resident and hybrid electrical system. This correlation will prove the effectiveness of this system and directly solve the problems faced by residents of the island as the Perhentian Island where the system was carried out in advance and had been effective there. Using the hybrid electrical vii system is one of a very efficient way to replace the generator and fuel set as a source of electricity particularly in island
