Yes, the lambdas are the locational marginal prices. And the user-defined costs
and constraints are added to the standard OPF formulation (see Section 6.3 in
the User’s Manual
<http://www.pserc.cornell.edu/matpower/docs/MATPOWER-manual-5.1.pdf>), so it is
optimized together with the user costs added to the fuel costs.
