LMP (locational marginal price) is the wholesale cost of electricity at a specific grid location, in $/MWh. The DART spread is the difference between day-ahead (DA) and real-time (RT) prices at a node; the congestion component is the portion of an LMP caused by transmission constraints limiting power flow to that location.
