Most gas plants require hydrogen to cool their generators, if the supply of hydrogen runs out then the plants shut down automatically, or worse. Typically hydrogen is provided in a trailer that is dropped off every couple weeks. Speaking from experience a plant that runs on a hydrogen trailer would probably shut down in 2 days if nobody was around to put new hydrogen cylinders into service.
