Using hydrolysis with solar or wind energy is, in effect, storage of green electrical energy as molecular hydrogen. That’s fine, green, and sustainable, but the question is why you’d want to store the energy that way. The answer seems to be frustrations with current battery technology. So where I’m at is that we need better batteries, not a whole new hydrogen infrastructure. By the way I drive an electric car and love it, I want to see the world move in that direction. But doesn't the hydorgen need to be kept cool, and large volume tanks are going to take a lot of energy to do that. The clear solution is either ride a bike or build a spaceship and get outta here!
