The problem with the most abundant element on earth, hydrogen is that most of it is tied up in water. it takes energy to release it and we do not have any efficent way yet. The first of the hydrogen economy will come from hydrocarbons being cracked to release hydrogen. Don't count out the oil companies they have the hydrocarbons and the distribution system. This will not liberate us from oil until a cost efficent method of cracking water is developed.
