Marks: +1, -0

Annual load factor of a generation station is equal to

${\No. \of \units \actually \supplied \/ \year}/{\max. \possible \demand ×8760 }$
${\No. \of \units \actually \supplied \/ \year}/{\max. \possible \demand }$
${\No. \of \units \actually \supplied \/ \month}/{\max. \possible \demand ×8760 }$
${\No. \of \units \actually \supplied \/ \month}/{\max. \possible \demand }$

Solution:

The capacity factor is computed by dividing the total energy producing by the full load capacity of the plant. Capacity factor is mostly used in generation studies. The annual capacity factor is expressed as
Annual capacity factor =

{\actual \annual \energy \generation}/{\maximum \plant \rating ×8760}
