It takes energy , one way or the other.

You see more about steam reforming , pyrolysis and such when looking into larger scale commercial hydrogen producers ... there it is about the $ balance ... not the energy balance.

In the HHO advocate side they aren't about trying to produce market priced hydrogen ... they are trying to beat the non-hydrogen energy balance.

So the intent behind the production method is different.
