We have many ways of building grid scale storage. All we lack is certainty about which kind will end up cheapest.
It just isn't built out yet. Building out storage will be premature until after there is enough extra renewable generating capacity to charge it from.
If lots of projects would have been cheaper than Vogtle, we may reasonably conclude that they didn't want one cheaper than Vogtle: it would have left too little scope for corruption and graft. Corruption is the ever-present companion of all nuke projects. Any nuke project without a ready conduit for graft will not be funded.
