A power station is to supply four regions of loads whose peak values are 10,000 kW, 5000 kW, 8000 kW and 7000 kW. The diversity factor of the load at the station is 1.5 and the average annual load factor is 60%. Calculate the maximum demand on the station and annual energy supplied from the station. A generating station has a connected load of 40 MW and a maximum demand of 20 MW : the units generated being 60 × 10°. Calculate (i) the demand factor (ii) the load factor.
