Since the Aug. 2020 blackout the state has added 2 GW of battery storage for solar and wind, as well as delayed closure of a natural gas plant. There's another 2 GW of battery storage planned for this year. If California had the extra 2 GW of storage in 2020, the blackout would have been averted.

4GW gives California 100 wh per capita. Doesn't seem like much but if they keep adding that much a year. What if they have ten times as much. That would be something.

GW is pretty much irrelevant for storage, since power is rarely the bottleneck.
