निम्नलिखित में से किसकी संचालन लागत सबसे अधिक है?
उत्तर और चरणबद्ध हल
B — थर्मल पावर प्लांट। यह लगातार बड़ी मात्रा में ईंधन खपत करता है और ईंधन हैंडलिंग, राख हैंडलिंग, बॉयलर संचालन व भारी रखरखाव चाहिए। जलविद्युत/सौर संयंत्रों की ईंधन लागत बहुत कम है।
विस्तृत हल (मूल भाषा में)
Concept & Reasoning
Operating cost is different from initial capital cost. Thermal stations can have lower initial cost than large hydro/nuclear projects, but coal/gas/oil fuel expense dominates recurring cost. Nuclear fuel volume is small even though nuclear plants have high capital, safety and decommissioning costs.
How to Solve It in the Exam
High recurring fuel requirement → high operating cost.
Important Exam Point
Read whether question asks capital cost or operating cost.
Quick Trick
High recurring fuel requirement → high operating cost.
Common Mistake
Choosing nuclear solely because its construction cost is high.

Which of the following has the highest operating cost?
Answer & step-by-step solution
Among the listed conventional choices, a thermal power plant has high operating cost because it continuously consumes large quantities of fuel and requires fuel handling, ash handling, boiler operation and significant maintenance. Hydroelectric/solar plants have very low fuel cost.

નીચેનામાંથી કોનો સંચાલન ખર્ચ સૌથી વધુ છે?
જવાબ અને પગલાવાર ઉકેલ
B — થર્મલ પાવર પ્લાન્ટ. તે સતત મોટા પ્રમાણમાં ઇંધણ વાપરે છે અને ઇંધણ હેન્ડલિંગ, રાખ હેન્ડલિંગ, બોઇલર સંચાલન અને ભારે જાળવણી જોઈએ. જળવિદ્યુત/સૌર મથકોનો ઇંધણ ખર્ચ ઘણો ઓછો છે.
