Consider the economic dispatch problem for a power plant having two generating units. The fuel costs in $$Rs/MWh$$ along with the generation limits for the two units are given below:
$$\eqalign{ & {C_1}\left( {{P_1}} \right) = 0.01\,P_1^2 + 30{P_1} + 10; \cr & \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,100\,MW \le {P_1} \le 150\,MW \cr} $$
$$\eqalign{ & {C_2}\left( {{P_2}} \right) = 0.05\,P_2^2 + 10{P_2} + 10; \cr & \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,100\,MW \le {P_2} \le 180\,MW \cr} $$

The incremental cost (in $$Rs/MWh$$) of the power plant when it supplies $$200$$ $$MW$$ is __________.

Consider a $$HVDC$$ link which uses thyristor based line commutated converters as shown in the figure. For a power flow of $$750$$ $$MW$$ from System $$1$$ to System $$2,$$ the voltages at the two ends, and the current, are given by: $${V_1} = 500\,kV,\,\,{V_2} = 485\,kV\,\,$$ and $$\,{\rm I} = 1.5\,kA.\,\,$$ If the direction of power flow is to be reversed (that is, from System $$2$$ to System $$1$$) without changing the electrical connections, then which one of the following combinations is feasible?
