That aside, Hydrogen as a concept is fucking useless. It would make a great temporary battery, solar panel generates hydrogen with excess electricity for a house, during the night the hydrogen is burnt to generate electricity.. otherwise, it's extremely difficult to transport, it will only give you back the energy you put in (minus the laws of thermodynamics) and it's impossible to store for any extended period of time.
