I think that interstellar hydrogen exists. Add energy; there's your 
deuterium for your palladium. Also, low temperatures exist (3 deg K). 
There's the environment for energy storage in (even an old-type) superconductor.
Now we have energy storage and generation of ideal type. What's the catch?
(is it in making the deuterium - or is there enough out there already?).
