Abstract
It is concluded that for a given load, with increase in BBC, the LCE increases linearly, whereas LPSP decreases exponentially. With increasing load, the BBC required for supplying power at a given LPSP, and corresponding LCE initially increase gradually and then sharply and linearly. With increase in wind speed, BBC and corresponding LCE initially decrease sharply and then gradually; this variation is more prominent for higher loads. The BBC and corresponding LCE decrease with increase in global irradiance, the decrease is gradual for low loads; whereas, for large loads the decrease is initially sharp and then gradual. The BBC required for supplying power to a given load at a given LPSP, and corresponding LCE, increase almost linearly with increase in annual average of hourly ambient temperature.
