This would work perfectly. The only fly in the ointment is the fact that the efficiency of electrolysis is so poor that you would be better using your renewable energy as electricity. Storing it in a battery, to power an EV, is much more efficient than using it in a fuel cell and even more so than using it to power an ICE.
