The laws of thermodynamics make pulling hydrogen from water impractical.
More energy goes in than comes out.
The latter is true. The former is not. Cracking water into hydrogen and oxygen is not done because it's an energy win. It's done in order to convert energy that's available in a less useful form into some other more useful form. To pick one simple example, let's suppose that we're using sunlight as the energy source to crack water.
