The increasing use of fossil fuel vehicles causes an increase in air pollution. Electric vehicles are an environmentally friendly transportation alternative, but the problem of charging electric motorbike batteries is a limiting factor to their use. Especially in areas where battery charging facilities are still limited. This study aims to simulate the performance of a hybrid photovoltaic (PV) system using HOMER software for charging batteries on electric motorbikes at the University of Nusa Putra Sukabumi. This research conducts a feasibility study, calculates the Net present Cost (NPC) Cost of Energy (COE) and Break Event Point (BEP) energy requirements to design a PV system, and simulates its performance using HOMER software. This research produces a renewable value fraction of 25.3%. The design of the Hybrid system has been achieved because all the components of the hybrid system at SPBKLU of Nusa Putra University have been fulfilled consisting of 22 545 Wp solar panels, 2 48 V 50 Ah batteries, and 4 4 kW Hybrid Inverters. Based on the economic analysis, the NPC value is IDR 165,882,507, the initial capital cost is IDR 61,432,496, the Cost of Energy is IDR 120,421 /kWh, and the BEP for 11 years
