Batteries will never be enough for full down time store. Anyone who’s saying otherwise is selling you batteries.
Just try to do some paper napkin math how much lithium batteries can store and how much we’d need to just satisfy current demand, not even talking about the near future.
The only battery technology that has promise is good ol’ hydro but it’s only accessible to a few places around the world and in no way sustainable.

Good thing there are options other than batteries. Which I have already linked to.
Also, I am amused that you are suggesting batteries will never have enough storage in a glowing article about non-practical fusion power.
