Transporation costs make it a real dog. If you put hydrogen generation close to the consumption, then it is a winner.

But how much does that generation cost?

"the most common price is $13.99 per kg (equivalent on a price per energy basis to $5.60 per gallon of gasoline)"

Another problem is the cheapest way to make it is from natural gas. If you are going to use fossil fuels why not just use them directly?
