As jemfinch points out the value that is important is the Wh per kg, or MJ per 1000 kg, not the liter volume. Though certainly the carbon fiber composites tanks required to store hydrogen at very high pressures are not light in weight.

One of the reasons why electric aircraft are currently very short range is that the best li ion batteries top out at 250Wh/kg.
