3. Case 2) Coal plants exit, and Solar generation enters the market Now, let's consider a scenario where the coal power plant (#1) shuts down and exits the market, and a solar generation facility is constructed. The capacity of the solar generation facility is the same as the coal power plant that went out of business. The generation capacities of this market are shown below, along with their MC. Table 3: Power Plant Capacity and Marginal Cost: Case 2 Plant # Energy Source Capacity (MW) MC (S/MWh) 2 Oil 100 90 3 Natural Gas 500 50 4 Nuclear 600 0 5 Solar 300 5 Note that the solar plant (#5) can generate electricity only from 7 AM until 5PM. During these hours, the plant can generate up to its full capacity (300 MW) but cannot generate any when unavailable. (a) Draw a supply curve for each hourly market (4AM, 10 AM, 2PM, 6PM).
