Hydrogen is NOT the answer as the losses converting say water to hydrogen and then H2 back to electricity are a HUGE waste compared to storing in a battery.

Depends on what fuel is available, if your electricity generation is from fossil fuels then it would be silly to use the chemical energy in them to make electricity and use that to make hydrogen, eff 40% as an upper limit. OTOH it is relatively easy to use the chemical energy to make hydrogen directly.  There are various gassification processes tailored to the available feedstock.

Electrolysis is the only option if you have nuclear electrical generation capacity.
