To make the Italians look less kooky, really what there is to claim here is that hydrogen, electricity and nickel powder can constitute a source of energy. It's pointless to point out that less energy is put in than taken out because combustion motors do that all the time were you not to count the fuel source.
The bottom line is if these scientists want to be taken seriously, they'll have to isolate their electrodes from any copper or iron, and run their test long enough to determine a consumption rate or a conversion rate if they are claiming to have a nuclear reaction at play.
It doesn't seem plausible. You would think someone would've discovered this dealing with hydrogen already.
I don't think the Italians are kooky, I think the reporters are kooky, just like the reporters that said a giant kraken killed ichthyosaurs and used their bones as art were kooky.
