What is the best storage for solar? Batteries, molten salt or pumped hydro?

Is anyone using excess solar energy for desalination plus pumped hydro?

We've only used Li-ion or led acid so far. Li-ion is much better long-term for a number of reasons. We like the idea of ESS flow, but haven't had a chance to use it yet.

No experience w/ solar for desalination or hydro as its outside our focus right now.
