Default Hydrogen Based Economy and Transport

I do not think of Hydrogen as a Fuel, I tend to think of it as a storage material.

You don't find Hydrogen in nature as you may mine for Coal or pump Crude Oil, you have to create Hydrogen by using an energy source such as Electricity to seperate Water into Hydrogen and Oxygen, (Electrolysis), The Hydrogen is then fed into the Fuel Cell where is recombined to Water and Electricity to propel the vehicle.

The Electrolysis Process is energy intensive, requiring the consumption of considerable amounts of fossil fuel.
