Yes, however it's a matter of degree. Manufacturing hydrogen wastes much more energy than a gasoline refinery, and the end product is not nearly as energy dense. It doesn't make sense to me to create a massive new infrastructure that results in wasting even more of the process inputs than before. It seems irresponsible.
