I’ve recently published a post on Hydrogen Economy on substack (https://pankajg.substack.com) some relevant facts for this thread:
Hydrogen is an Energy Carrier , not an Energy Source.It’s energy content per unit of mass (specific energy) is higher than most hydrocarbon fuels. In contrast, its volumetric energy density is the lowest. So you either need a huge volume or alternatives being pressurization or liquefaction before hydrogen can be used as a fuel. (i.e. challenges in storage and transportation)
Potential use cases of hydrogen include consumption in:
Hydrogen Production
Green Hydrogen is already cost-effective in India for Industrial Use: See accelerated adoption of Green Hydrogen for existing use cases in Ammonia, Refining, Methanol and Steel

Materials critical to modern-day living such as steel, ammonia, cement, and plastic have no substitutes and cannot be decarbonized with electricity alone. Green hydrogen completes the decarbonization puzzle.
