 AC Towers 200m span = 80,000$.
 1m of conductor for AC = 80$.

 1 Station = 10,000,000$.
 DC Towers 200m span = 45,000$.
 1m of conductor for AC = 160$.

DC TL lower Tower and conductor costs
and higher terminal costs.
Economics determines the design to be
used.
Line length determines which one is
