What Changed DOE Secretary Steven Chu's Mind About Hydrogen Fuel Cells. Natural gas now being retrieved from shale provides an enormous source of hydrogen. When Steven Chu, a Nobel Prize winning physicist, was named Secretary of the Department of Energy in the Obama Administration, he quickly redirected much of the Department's automotive research efforts into battery electric vehicles. So much so that proponents of hydrogen fuel cells complained loudly that the Secretary was starving their research efforts.
Automakers will no doubt welcome the Secretary's change of heart.
