It only makes sense if this would be completely wasted electricity, but even then battery storage makes more sense.

As I understand it - the goal is to lower the cost of green hydrogen so it becomes cost friendly with gas, etc. EV's, don't make as much sense in a place where most of the electricity comes from coal so hydrogen vehicles may make more sense there.
I also assume because labour is cheap there and they have a ton of sun - if they can crack the code - they can create more of this stuff/cheaper than most countries. If green hydrogen becomes a big fuel of the future - being the cheapest and most abundant source of it in Asia would be a boon for their economy.
