 Distinguish between static and dynamic planning with regards to power system

planning.

 Differentiate between Decision and Dependent Variables in optimization problems.

 Explain the effect of changing radiation and temperature on a PV module, draw I-V

curves for different cases.

 Classify power system studies from a time-horizon perspective.

 Define the following terms:

i) Demand factor
ii) System Reserve

The fuel-cost functions for three thermal plants in $/h are given by

C1= 500+ 5.3P1+0.004 P12

C2= 400 +5.5P2 + 0.006P22

C3 = 200 + 5.8P3 + 0.009P32

where P1, P2, and P3 are in MW. The total load demand, PD is 800 MW. Neglecting line

losses and generator limits, find the optimal dispatch and the total cost in $/h.
 Design PV system components to supply the following load:
