The European Union (EU) has funded cold fusion research under grant agreement no 951974, project duration August 2020 – July 2024. This is called the Clean HME (Hydrogen Metal Energy) project, which is the latest alternative name for cold fusion. See:
Researchers funded by this project presented 10 papers at ICCF-24. They had an initial meeting at the University of Szczecin in September 2020. Here are videos from the meeting.
In 1989 the Department of Energy decided not to fund cold fusion. The question was revised in 2004. A panel of experts recommended funding, but the Department did not follow the recommendation. There has been some low level research by DARPA, the Army and NASA over the years. This year, support for research has increased dramatically.
At the ICCF-23 conference in July 2022, DARPA announced that it will open funding opportunities for cold fusion starting in Augusts 2022. Researchers at NASA announced improved results. The Army and Navy both announced projects with 10 or 20 people, which is huge by the standards of cold fusion. The Navy program is being done in cooperation with other U.S. laboratories at NIST, industry and academia. Some of the slides from NASA, the Army and Navy presentations are shown below.

The 15th International Workshop on Anomalies in Hydrogen Loaded Metals and CleanHME General Assembly will be held 25 September – 29 September 2022
Location: Hotel Domus Pacis Assisi, Piazza Porziuncola, 1 I-06081, Santa Maria degli Angeli (PG), Italy
The ICCF24 Solid State Energy Summit will be held July 25 – 28, 2022. The conference will be both Virtual and in person at Mountain View, California.
ABOUT
“The Summit will be a chance to reinvigorate interest and support for the next-generation of investment and research in the area of cold fusion and low-energy nuclear reactions (LENR) through augmenting and empowering the ICCF community who have been the pioneers of the field.
Through this summit we want to aim to inspire young STEM talent to see this field as a valid career path, researchers and technologists to consider the value of pursuing on-demand, repeatable experimental evidence, and the investment community to see economic opportunity and societal benefit in supporting this field.”

This will probably be the largest ICCF conference since ICCF3, in 1992.
The ARPA-E Low-Energy Nuclear Reactions (LENR) Workshop was held on October 21-22, 2021. The workshop program, with links to some of the presentations, is here:

A copy of this program is in the LENR-CANR.org library, along with one of the PowerPoint slides:
The 23rd International Conference on Cold Fusion (ICCF-23) was held on June 9 – 11, 2021, at Xiamen University, Fujian, China. The website is here:
The conference was mainly virtual because of the COVID-19 pandemic. The conference organizers are:
Innovation Laboratory for Sciences and Technologies of Energy Materials of Fujian Province (IKKEM), China
State Key Laboratory of Physical Chemistry of Solid Surfaces, Xiamen University
The abstracts and videos of the presentations are here:
January 22, 2021 – January 24, 2021.
This is a virtual conference. Presentations are already recorded and available at the conference website: https://sites.google.com/view/lenr-workshop/home
The 22nd International Conference on Condensed Matter Nuclear Science ICCF-22 was held September 8-13, 2019 in Assisi, Italy.
