The system has two units, which run for 1000 hours. One unit is of 400 MW FOR 0.1 and
another unit of 200 MW FOR 0.1. The larger unit has unit running cost as Rs. 2.5/ hr
while the smaller unit has a unit running cost as Rs. 3/ hr. Find (i) the generation of each
unit (ii) final LOLP, (iii) final ENS using equivalent load model.
