Only one problem- where does the hydrogen come from?
By splitting water into oxygen and hydrogen.
How do you do that?
By using the same electricity used for electric cars-produced by coal, gas, oil, nuclear( and on a windy day, not too windy, a little bit from the super expensive turbines).

The final result may seem like clean energy but it's not clean or efficient.

We've a long way to go before we find a true source of clean energy.
