The problem with hydrogen is it requires a ton of electricity to produce cleanly. Most hydrogen today is produced using hydrocarbons which obviously just shifting carbon from fuel to production. If you want clean hydrogen it will need to be produced by nuclear plants. Hydrogen is also difficult to store as it must be contained under pressure and is highly explosive.

I think we should skip hydrogen as a storage medium and just skip right to electric vehicles.
