There have been a few small demo projects which have used electrolysis for
making hydrogen, usually due to special circumstances of one kind or
another. For example, if memory serves, there are a couple of H2-powered
buses in Iceland, and their fuel station uses electrolysis because Iceland
has (a) lots of hydroelectric and geothermal power, and (b) no natural gas.
