Hydrogen requires energy to get, which practically requires fuel to be burned. Sure, you could use green energy, but you could also still build the green energy and just offset other energy demand elsewhere, which would take dirty energy off the grid.

This isn't mentioning all the issues with hydrogen, the largest probably being that it does not like being contained. It's literally just a proton and electron. It's tiny, so really nothing can contain it perfectly.
