Batteries are great for this kind of stability support. I actually work for an Australian company that aggregates residential batteries together into MW-scale units and provides coordinated responses from 1,000 of kW-scale batteries that just as capable as a MW-scale plant (at a much lower cost of capital).

Here's one of our plants in Canberra which is past 3MW now, and is the first of its kind to be approved to bid into our fast frequency stability markets (where you have less than a couple of seconds to respond). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=36UJMuC9-k0
