A better use of this Hydrogen would be to burn it on-site in ICE generators or in fuel cells during time of high electricity costs as a method of arbitrage. As in: Extra electricity from solar and/or wind at the moment? Make clean hydrogen. Low supply of electricity from solar and/or wind at the moment, turn that clean hydrogen back into electricity.

Storing and transporting Hydrogen would lead to lots of unnecessary losses.
