Just build water towers. 100m water tower is nowhere near as an extreme engineering as this.

a 100m water tower doesn't hold as much energy either does it? It's pretty light compared to concrete, I think.

Less by 2.5 times, but it being 2.5 times more wouldn't make much difference. Power, and energy density would still be very, very bad.
