Its likely that industrial users of Hydrogen will buy electrolizers and generate and store their own hydrogen when off peak energy is available.

This both lets then act as distributed demand and saves on transport costs. Simce they use hydrogen anyway, they already need to store it.

Ok, so industrial users buy hydrogen. And then how do you convert the currency they give you into energy when you need it later? If you're just trying to find an economic use for excess power, you might as well mine Bitcoin.
