The expressions of fuel cost of two thermal generating units as a function of the respective power generation $${P_{G1}}$$ and $${P_{G2}}$$ are given as

$$\matrix{ {{F_1}({P_{G1}}) = 0.1aP_{G1}^2 + 40{P_{G1}} + 120\,Rs/hour} & {0\,MW \le {P_{G1}} \le 350\,MW} \cr {{F_2}({P_{G2}}) = 0.2P_{G2}^2 + 30{P_{G2}} + 100\,Rs/hour} & {0\,MW \le {P_{G2}} \le 300\,MW} \cr } $$

where $$a$$ is a constant. For a given value of $$a$$, optimal dispatch requires the total load of 290 MW to be shared as $${P_{G1}} = 175\,MW$$ and $${P_{G2}} = 115\,MW$$. With the load remaining unchanged, the value of $$a$$ is increased by 10% and optimal dispatch is carried out. The changes in $${P_{G1}}$$ and the total cost of generation, $$F( = {F_1} + {F_2})$$ in Rs/hour will be as follows

A
$${P_{G1}}$$ will decrease and $$F$$ will increase
B
Both $${P_{G1}}$$ and $$F$$ will increase
C
$${P_{G1}}$$ will increase and $$F$$ will decrease
D
Both $${P_{G1}}$$ and $$F$$ will decrease
