    There has been some cool innovation in renewable energy storage such as pairing it with hydro and pumping water back up using access electricity during peak production.

      I love these fiction land scenarios that magically change the landscape.

      The innovation is there but it’s not viable yet for a country, or even city wide grid. Hydro is okay but severely limited by geography, rocks up a mountain could work too but it’s also limited by geography to some extent.
