    And juice was used to make the H fuel?

    They don't say, but probably not.  Probably made from methane, as most is currently.

    In the future, theoretically it comes from renewable electricity turned to chemical energy stored in the H, then back to electrical when converted by the fuel cell.  Same as batteries work, electricity is stored as chemical energy in the Li-H salts then converted back to electricity when discharged.  All batteries store energy in some chemical compound or salt.
