Nobody does a storage based solar grid at a country scale.
Solar has only really been viable since ~2020.
Storage has only really been viable since mid 2024.
With timelines in the energy business being decades there's what currently exists and where we are headed are two completely different questions.
Looking at what gets built Q1 through Q3 in 2025 solar and wind met all electricity grid demand growth.

Storage is also scaling massively.

If we just keep doing like we are then within 10-15 years renewables will be dominating every single grid globally.
