The field has expanded from deuterium in palladium to also include hydrogen in nickel and nickel nano-powder, low energy glow discharge, and transmutation experiments (mostly in Japan). Research funding sources in the US include the Defense Advanced Research Projects Administration (DARPA), and the Department of Defense, Threat Reduction Agency.

There are also companies claiming to have working Nickel-Hydrogen demonstration devices, claiming power levels that could see commercial usage; however there is no open independent evidence that these devices work reliably, only enthusiasm, promises from the companies—often not met --, and some public demonstrations that convinced some, but that were also flawed in ways that eventually led to extended skepticism even from those who have accepted cold fusion in general.

''The Rossi claims have not been independently confirmed, and publicly-available evidence is inadequate to determine if the devices work at all, and if they do, if they depend on cold fusion, or low-energy nuclear reactions, or not. There is minor coverage in this article of other, scientifically-established, approaches to cold fusion. ''
