This suggests an accurate modelling of LAES is necessary for multi-mode operation, in agreement with the conclusions drawn for a compressed air energy storage plant in Ref. [41]. The more services LAES is providing, the more revenue is lost for the corrected case, due to frequent off-design discharge (see section 3.4 ).
