Photoreactors are systems that convert light into an energy source. This research aims to design and build a visible light hexagonal photoreactor to generate electrical energy. The method used is geometry design and photoreactor prototype making. The tested photoreactors were tested using the integrated android F1-S (Appertude 2.0 Camera) light detector, and the resulting voltage and current measurements. The ability of hexagonal Photoreactor to convert visible light into electrical energy reaches a maximum condition of 16,728 mWatt in a light flux of 4573 lx. The light panel is characterized by FTIR, at 769.40 cm-1 wavelength, transmittance is only 23.39%, while at 921.34 cm-1, transmittance remains only 3.24%. In visible light, nearly 100% of the light can be passed on. Photoreactor hexagonal light space produces electrical energy reaches 0.0763835616 Watt/m2. © 2019 Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
