I see another potential co-production application. Create both hydrogen and bio-fuel with algae. Of course, each technology would have to be somewhat established first before a successful dual-fuel plant could work, but conceptually I don't know of any major problems. Feed and grow the algae and let them produce hydrogen. Harvest the algae and produce liquid fuel. Repeat.
