Are there any nuclear plants today that implement energy storage? I know molten salt reactors would be capable but none actually exist as far as I can find.

It's not that they are used for storage, but are able to be ramped up or down to meet demand at will., eliminating the need for storage. Kind of like a tankless water heater
