Problem - Load Curve, Load Duration Curve, Plant Load, Plant Capacity & Plant Use Factor, reserve

Draw the Load Curve and Load Duration Curve. Determine the load factor and select a suitable number and size of units to supply this load. The reliability of the supply is to be maintained. Determine the reserve capacity, the plant capacity factor, plant use factor and the operating schedule of the plant to meet the load.
A Power plant has to supply load as follows:
12 Midnight to 5 AM 500 kW
5 AM to 10 AM 800 kW
10 AM to 12 Noon 2000 kW
12 Noon to 2 PM 1000 kW
2 PM to 5 PM 2500 kW
5 PM to 8 PM 2000 kW
8 PM to 10 PM 1500 kW
10 PM to 12 Midnight 1000 kW
