Not the parent. But grid scale battery storage does exist. The UK has around 30GW in the pipeline and deployed around 1GW last year. Projects like xlinks are not directly comparable to other mega projects as they are far less monolithic. They can scale out rather than having to scale up. In terms of staffing a nuclear station needs many different professions who are relatively expensive, specialised, and need to be heavily monitored for safety. Renewables requires talent obviously but probably less so.
