The majority of hydrogen in Earth’s core is likely to have been incorporated during planet’s formation, rather than through comet impacts. Findings suggest the core may be largest reservoir of hydrogen on Earth, containing more hydrogen than that stored in the oceans:

Earth’s core is arguably the largest reservoir of hydrogen (H) on the planet. Experiments show that H sequestration is coupled with those of Si and O, enabling the core to store the equivalent of dozens of Earth’s oceans.
