Hello, I have just got familiar with Matpower too but as much as I know in every casedata there is a part namely: generator cost data that you can find the relevant cost coefficients. for example type: open case9 then in case9.m file at the end of the page in the generator cost data there is a matrix: mpc.gencost with 7 columns...the last three columns are the coefficients that you need. should you need more details, just simply type : 'help caseformat ' and you will find good information. hope it helps

Specifically, the generation cost is like this: f=a*P^2+b*P+c, where the P is the active power output. The coefficients are a,b,c. For the Var devices cost, I hope the cost is composed by f=C_fix+C_variable*Qc, where Qc is the output reative power of the Var device. And the coefficients are C_fix and C_variable. Does anybody have some reference data please? Thank you so much.
