Yep. Electrolysis of water is still the same whether a generator at the power plant makes the electricity or a solar panel does.

And it sure is funny that a volume of hydrogen is given here but not the pressure thereof, so no way to figure out just how many moles of hydrogen were generated.

I think it would be safe to assume that it is at 1 atmosphere, ie. uncompressed.

They aren’t doing electrolysis.

If they don’t specify the pressure of the hydrogen then you can safely assume they are talking about 1ATM, or ambient pressure. We aren’t talking about liquid hydrogen for sure, so storage pressure would probably be closer to natural gas.

If not otherwise specified, always assume they are talking about uncompressed hydrogen, which would maximize their "gallons of hydrogen" figure. Negligible energy density.
