A $$3$$-phase, $$11$$-$$kV$$ generator feeds power to a constant power unity power factor load of $$100$$ $$MW$$ through a $$3$$-phase transmission line. The line-to-line voltage at the terminals of the machine is maintained constant at $$11$$ $$kV$$. The per unit positive sequence impedance of the line based on $$100$$ $$MVA$$ and $$11$$ $$kV$$ is $$j$$ $$0.2$$. The line to line voltage at the load terminals is measured to be less than $$11$$ $$kV$$. The total reactive power to be injected at the terminals of the load to increase the line-to-line voltage at the load terminals to $$11$$ $$kV$$ is
A
$$100$$ MVAR
B
$$10.1$$ MVAR
C
$$-100$$ MVAR
D
$$-10.1$$ MVAR
