Or pumped hydro

Sure, but unfortunately space for hydro is limited too. If you don‘t want to destroy your ecosystem in the mountains.
In Switzerland i think we produce about 60% of our power with hydro. But we build out most of the easy places and there are large hurdles to overcome. Be it construction effort / difficulty wise or in form of resistance against future projects.
I guess it‘s always a tradeoff.
