It is possible to extract the hydrogen out of water and use it as a fuel. HOWEVER, it takes more energy to extract the hydrogen than the energy that you would get from using it as a fuel. This fact can never be circumvented until some very basic laws of science are changed; which is not too likely.

And I have this London Bridge I want to sell you too. Hydrogen from water may be the fuel of choice 25 to 50 years from now anything sold today to make water into fuel is just a scam.

It doesn't work. You have to put more energy into making hydrogen from water than you get out by burning the hydrogen.
