Water, as used in this context, is not the "fuel". He's using
electricity to dissociate the water into hydrogen and oxygen gas (or
maybe a partial hydrolysis to hydrogen and hydroxide ions) and then
recombining the gases in his torch (or in his car), which turns the
electrical energy into heat (and, judging by the tone of the article,
smoke and mirrors).

The energy is provided by the electrical plant that provided the power
to run his electrolysis machine. That's going to be coal-fired,
hydroelectric, nuclear, or in the case of his car, a gasoline powered
internal combustion engine.
