In a power system, the present installed capacity is 2000MW. The peak demand is 18OOMW. The annual increase in peak demand is happening at the rate of 20%. (a) Calculate the Future Reserve margin of the system next year if no additional installed capacity is added to the system. (b) What is your inference for reporting to higher officials as a Electrical reliability Engineer from above mentioned calculation?
