Or rather, it specifically might NOT make sense at scale. It might only make sense in middle scales, where there isn’t a topographic advantage to use, but the requirement is more than batteries can support.
Yes, I agree. I’m just making the point that there isn’t just a lower limit to the scale for a system like this, but an upper limit too, where you would have been better off just building a dam.

What I meant is that you need to build a unit of a certain size before it becomes efficient enough to be practical.

Yeah for sure.
