Plentiful? Water is plentiful when you die of thirst in a lifeboat, too.
Hydrogen is plentiful but not in a form we can use. It has to be separated from something else, like oxygen in the case of water. Separating takes energy....lots and lots of energy. That's the holdup.
Water, water, every where,
And all the boards did shrink ;
Water, water, every where,
Nor any drop to drink.
