There are a variety of ways to produce hydrogen. Although the fundamental energy equations still apply, energy can be obtained from as you say hydroelectric, solar, geothermal, and algae. I think Iceland is big on this.
Also compression isn't the only way to store the hydrogen. THEY'RE using hydrogen absorbing alloys and the like. I like hydrogen!!!
