The chart given below compares the Installed Capacity (MW) of four power generation technologies, T1, T2, T3, and T4, and their Electricity Generation (MWh) in a time of 1000 hours (h).

Source dual-axis chart of installed capacity and electricity generation for T1, T2, T3, and T4.

The Capacity Factor of a power generation technology is:

Capacity Factor=Electricity Generation (MWh)Installed Capacity (MW)×1000 (h)\text{Capacity Factor}=\frac{\text{Electricity Generation (MWh)}}{\text{Installed Capacity (MW)}\times 1000\text{ (h)}}

Which one of the given technologies has the highest Capacity Factor?

  1. A.

    T1

  2. B.

    T2

  3. C.

    T3
