> Hydrogen is supported only to draw support away from EVs.

No, or at least not by everyone. Hydrogen is seen as a replacement for natural gas. For example: https://reneweconomy.com.au/australia-japan-consortium-explo... There is no fancy fuel cell converting it to electricity in this plan. They are just going t burn it for heat, just as they do for natural gas.

Now there are a few problems, such as cost. Producing hydrogen costs around 4 times what it costs to produce natural gas. Or at least it did before the Ukraine broke out. Right now, if anyone was making renewable hydrogen, they would ge getting a tidy profit.

Another is storage. You can't economically liquefy it, it literally passes through metal walls and damages them on the way through. Converting to Ammonia is well understood, but getting hydrogen back was a problem. Until: https://www.csiro.au/en/research/environmental-impacts/fuels...

It might work. 100's of millions are being invested into finding out if it does.
