The hot reserve or reserve capacity of a power plant is given by:
Hot reserve = Plant capacity - Demand capacity
Calculation
Given, Plant capacity = 200 MVA
Demand capacity = 120 MVA
Hot reserve = 200 - 120
Hot reserve = 80 MVA
Additional Information The plant capacity factor is given by:
\(Plant \space capacity \space factor={Average \space demand\over Plant \space capacity}\)
