Or just push it into the gas pipeline grid, it provides storage capacity and has the applications already waiting (the amount of hydrogen allowed in the final mix varies between regions, but we are a long shot from displacing natural gas by that fraction, worst case you'd have to add in a slightly lossy methanation step).
It works, a well developed gas grid already has all the storage capacity you could ever need and you wouldn't have to scrap your existing gas peakers even after scaling to 100% renewable. Perfect migration paths tend to be disappointingly unspectacular.
