Biomass materials with considerable potential include candlenut shells and coconut shells, which can be utilised for the production of charcoal briquettes as a renewable energy source. The objective of this study was to determine the quality of charcoal briquettes composed of mixed candlenut shells and coconut shells for renewable energy. The overall procedure for producing charcoal briquettes consisted of four main stages, namely raw material preparation, carbonisation, briquette moulding, conditioning and testing. The tests included measurements of moisture content, ash content, calorific value and compressive strength. The results indicated that all tested parameters complied with the Indonesian National Standard (SNI 01-6235-2000), with moisture content ranging from 1,40–2,40%, ash content from 1,08–1,18%, calorific value between 6063,89–6444,65 cal/g, and compressive strength from 0,80–1,07 MPa. Statistically, the mixed charcoal briquettes made from candlenut shells and coconut shells exhibited a significant effect at the 5% level for all test parameters.
