I wish him well and fully support the market creating new sources of energy.
Yet I still don’t see how producing, processing, and storing hydrogen will ever produce more energy than it took to get it in a useable state.

Windmills running at night when electricity demand is lowest? Use their electricity to make hydrogen. The oxygen can be sold off too as an industrial gas for welding. Medical uses too.
Solar panel farms are producing excess electricity? Store this energy as hydrogen. In the way mentioned in the above PM article. Ideally stored in modular, inter-changeable automobile batteries to replace lithium batteries. In say 20 years or so.
