Two things are hardly ever spoken about when splitting water: The pure oxygen is just as useful of a product and can be used to gasify woody biomass, plastics and other waste streams into more useful fuel sources such as syngas, or liquid fuels using the fischer-tropsch process. It is also useful for medical processes. Second, natural gas lines can utilize something like 10% hydrogen...so we can store a large quantity in our existing infrastructure for use later that day, or in other locations.
