Not quite - only the biggest hydro stations can generate a gigawatt or more, and their startup time is like 10 minutes.

This project is only 500 MW here pv-magazine.de/…/flexbase-plant-500-megawatt-redo… And other places say 800 MW Both of which are comparable to large hydro. Modern pumped hydro has a ramp up in the 10s of seconds range. Anyway. Same ballpark in terms of power.
