Yep. Many people know that Hydrogen and Hindenburg start with the same letter.

There are no hydrogen wells. So you'd have to use a lot of energy to make hydrogen fuel in the needed quantities. And then (because it's such a light gas) highly-pressurized containers (collision-survivable) are needed.

Instead, use that energy more directly.

Question - what about using solar panels to fund the energy? i.e. a large solar farm
