If I add a penalty to the cost of that generator to make it more expensive than the other units, I expect an increase in total system cost . Is there a way to get rid of that additional cost ?
I hope adding a cost penalty could be done similar to Generation Reserve you explained in manual.

I want generation from one generator to be minimized minimizing overall system cost. This generator should be included in opf only if runopf cannot converge to a solution. This is one of the cheapest generator in the system. So unit commitment starts with dispatching this generator first. What is the best way to achieve this ?

( Usually least expensive first ; It depends may vary with total load and quadratic cost function). Is there any function which gives me the order of unit decommitment? Thanks, Nandu See Table 6-1 in the User’s Manual<http://www.pserc.cornell.edu/matpower/docs/MATPOWER-manual-5.1.pdf> for results of the OPF, including LAM_P which is the LMP and see Section 4.4 for a description of MATPOWER’s functions for computing shift factors.

If you want to calculate LMPs for a particular system run OPF and see the results, in OPF results one function called Lamada this indicates LMPs at all the buses. I think direct calculation of GSF is not possible using MATPOWER we have to write code for this. I hope this will clarify your doubt.
