100% of reports of cold fusion so far are total bullshit, what they usually don't say is that they're using a generator the size of a half a city block to create theoretical fusion between like 2 atoms. Sure it's "cold", there isn't enough energy to power a grasshopper fart.

Anyway, without really being able to tell what they're actually doing from that article I'll tell you the best way to determine if scientific theory XYZ is true or desparate scamming to maintain one's research grant. After the dude has published in some major paper the details of his work then if 100 different labs in different countries (and preferably different continents) can reproduce the experiment in their own labs, then you're on to something. Two labs in the same country headed by two old college buddies doesn't count.
