Hydrogen From Seawater: Where Would the Energy Come From?

I respond to some uncomplimentary letters about John Parker in "En Passant" of today.  I think the respondents have missed the point of Mr Parker's question.  Anyone who has done physics at school knows that hydrogen can be produced from water by electrolysis.  However, the point is: Electricity is required for this – where would this electricity come from?  This was never explained in the original letter to which Mr Parker responded.
