Really impressive simulation of using fresh-water storage tanks as energy storage in regions that use desalination.
The cost of overbuilding desalination capacity is non-zero though, and energy is only about ~1/3rd of the typical cost for a cubic meter of water overall depending on the plant, so the marginal savings may not be as big as we would like here.
