Electrolysis of water is 70–80% efficient (a 20–30% conversion loss) while steam reforming of natural gas has a thermal efficiency between 70 and 85%.

Current/Faraday efficiency is an entirely different thing. 100% current efficiency means you won't get a buildup of side products or erosion of your electrodes due to stray electrons. In isolation it is not a measure of power efficiency.
