The Baltic nation of Estonia has launched an ambitious 100% renewable energy goal for 2030. As part of that goal, energy industry stakeholders plan to showcase the entire country as the world’s first nationwide, integrated “hydrogen valley” hub, with a focus on green hydrogen.

Fuel cells can also run cars, and refilling is much faster than recharging.

It's usually faster, yeah. But honestly I'm not sure which I'd rather have in my cars, explosive Li batteries or explosive highly pressurized hydrogen. Or are we storing liquid hydrogen? Because that seems like an even worse idea.

It sucks that high density energy storage systems are by definition able to release a lot of energy (explosive).
