A great layman's overview of hydrogen benefits;

Hydrogen: Virtually Limitless, Virtually Pollution-Free

Hydrogen accounts for more than 80 percent of all the matter in the universe.
Most of this buoyant gas that occurs naturally escapes the earth's atmosphere
into space; the rest is bound up in chemical compounds. Industry produces
hydrogen for a variety of purposes, usually by obtaining it from fossil fuels,
the source of more than 99 percent of the hydrogen produced worldwide.
Virtually all of this hydrogen is used in the chemical industry as a feedstock;
a small portion is used in hydrogen fuel cells that have helped power the US
space program for decades.

The fossil fuel from which hydrogen can today be produced most cleanly
and efficiently is natural gas. Splitting away four atoms of hydrogen from the
single atom of carbon in a molecule of natural gas is much easier than
refining gasoline down to its basics. Hydrogen can also be produced using
renewable energy resources as part of a sustainable transportation system.
For example, solar energy can be used to split the water molecule, releasing
hydrogen. Thus produced, pure hydrogen can be burned in an internal
combustion engine to power conventional automobiles. Or hydrogen, in a
fuel cell, can power an electric vehicle. Either way, using hydrogen releases
water vapor as its only by-product. This vapor can serve again as the source
of additional hydrogen production, thereby completing a cycle that can be
continued indefinitely.
