To put this in perspective this is exactly what is needed for some use cases. I live in Singapore. We are a small island nation with zero natural resources. Currently our energy mix almost exclusively dominated by fossil fuels. The move away from fossil fuels is right now impractical as we don't have the necessary land space for solar and we dont receive enough wind to justify wind power. There are no mountains for hydroelectric power. We also have a massive energy footprint thanks to air-conditioning and industry. We don't have many alternatives other than to either (1) import green energy or (2) use nuclear.

(1) poses defense and logistic problem. We become victims to the whims of our neighbours (politicians in our neighbouring country have more than once threatened to cut our water supply). While, we do import water from malaysia, we can also be fully self sufficient should the need arise thanks to desalination and rain water cachement. As a small nation we have a requirement to defend ourselves. Petrol is very convenient as we have massive reserves that should last us a year should we need to go into siege batteries on the other hand don't. Thus a hydrogen economy is a massive game changer for us.

(2) is something we may explore. But as a land scarce island with no prior nuclear technology, we would need to develop new technology from scratch. It could easily be decades before a sufficiently large yield and safe reactor becomes available. Hydrogen on the other hand has a shorter run way.
