This causes storage operation to restart at 229 h as the observed pressure increase at the storage wells exceeds the (arbitrarily set) restart requirement of 6 bar. However, given the relatively low storage pressure of 46 bar and the limited gas reserves in place, the discharge power remains within −19 MW to −10 MW.
