And agreed. If we have the cheap power why do we need to generate the
hydrogen to run the cars.

Because battery technology is not sufficient... Hydrogen works out to
be the energy transport / storage mechanism... Existing vehicles can
be converted to work on hydrogen... Unless we can come up with a
battery type that charges significantly quicker than current ones and
holds significantly more energy, I don't see us getting away from some
sort of internal combustion engine... Yeah, fuel cells might be good,
but you still need some sort of fuel that contains hydrogen in it...
