the fuel cells convert hydrogen into energy using a converter and that energy is used to power the vehicle
Carbon and hydrogen
hydrogen
do the math
The most important advantage of fuel cells is that their only byproduct is water, and of course discarded parts. The disadvantage is that the hydrogen used in them has to be electrolyzed from water or found in some other way. Because of the law of conservation of energy, fuel cells do not produce energy, they only store it.

More mass is converted to energy in a fusion reaction than in a chemical reaction, such as that found in a fuel cell. - APEX
The hydrogen on sugars and fats.
hydrogen
Hydrogen fuel cells are very similar to batteries. They use a chemical reaction between atoms to produce their energy. •It has two electrodes, an anode and a cathode, separated by a membrane. Oxygen passes over one electrode and hydrogen over the other.

Alternative energy
Heat energy could be used to produce steam. The steam could be used to spin turbines and thus producing mechanical energy (to be used to move e.g submarines and/or ice breakers). The mechanical energy could move electric generators to produce electric energy. Another option is to use heat energy to produce hydrogen. Hydrogen could be used to produce electric energy (through fuel cells) or to produce mechanical energy (in cars and buses and other vehicles)
