Hydrogen is inefficient. First, you have to put it huge amount of energy to split water which has losses. Then converting it back to electricity too has losses. You could have used the same energy to charge a battery instead which are like 95% efficient.

This is one of the most important factor other than the issues with hydrogen generation, storage, and safety challenges.
