sigh This reminds me of all of the tedious arguments by people reminding us that solar panels don't work at night, implying that they are therefore useless. Or the ones that remind you that batteries are useless for seasonal storage. Or that the wind doesnt always blow. Yes, individually all of them have crippling flaws and all of them work best when combined with technology that has complementary crippling flaws. Snowy 2 won't be used instead of batteries it'll be used alongside batteries. Right now nothing comes close to beating its price / gwh no matter how much the cost overruns or how many people dump on it for being 7x cheaper per gwh than batteries instead of 10x. More countries should be building one as well as building out grid level batteries. They complement each other.
