Do you know what’s the (current practical and maximum theoretical) roundtrip efficiency of hydrocarbons (gasoline, alcohol, methane, ...)? Could be a better alternative than H2 (and longer lasting than batteries, even if lower efficiency).

Roundtrip efficiency is not the reason to use hydrogen for anything.
