In fact not true.

“A healthy skepticism is warranted,” says Steven B. Krivit, author of a recent book on cold fusion. “However, the facts show that cold fusion experiments have been demonstrated, reproduced, replicated and published in peer-review journals.”

Experimental evidence consistently demonstrates that nuclear-scale energy, in the form of heat, is being generated without harmful radiation, greenhouse gasses or nuclear waste.

I’ll wait and see. If true, then awesome and the guy will become the richest man who ever lived, deseveredly so, the stock market will go to 30,000 in a year, and gold will drop to 32 dollars per ounce. If not true, then the cold fusion story will just continue on in a new vien as it has for so many years.

You forgot a key word there, as in 'disputed' experimental evidence consistently demonstrates...

Scientific American throws some cold water on the Cold Fusion debate here with a discussion of the findings of a DOE review panel. Most people in the panel don't seem to be sold("two thirds of reviewers found the evidence unconvincing").

Actually I found this article to be fairly interesting. The author makes a rather telling point that even if Cold Fusion works, it doesn't seem to generate enough energy to be interesting (as in it is less cost effective than wind or solar, which we know are already laughable).
