Electrical Engineering > GATE 2015 SET-1 > Economic Load Dispatch
Consider the economic dispatch problem for a power plant having two generating units. The fuel costs in Rs/MWh along with the generation limits for the two units are given below:
C1(P1) = 0.01P12 + 30P1 + 10; 100 MW ≤ P1 ≤ 150 MW
C2(P2) = 0.05P22 + 10P2 + 10; 100 MW ≤ P2 ≤ 180 MW
The incremental cost (in Rs/MWh) of the power plant when it supplies 200 MW is ________.

Correct : 20
