I’ll note that aggregate system cost still benefits significantly from including wind and other non-solar sources of energy; having a mix of different intermittent sources (and some firm generation such as geothermal) means less storage is needed.

Pumped hydro is great but limited by site availability
Yep, it’s great that batteries have gotten cheaper as they can be used basically anywhere.
I’m selfishly thinking of Australia in particular where we have almost 70 TWh of potential storage.
