No ! You seem to be confusing chemistry with nuclear reactions.
Heat is not being stored but altered reactants are.
Incorrect. Any method of storing energy -- chemical, mechanical,
electrical or nuclear -- must result in a heat deficit.
You are intentionally obfuscating. When hydrogen or deuterium are
densified by giving up angular momentum of the electron orbital - heat
is released. That heat shows up in the excess heat of the reaction along
with nuclear heat, if there is any.
This is NOT a deficit. The dense hydrogen actually becomes easier to
fuse than before so it is win-win and not a balancing act as with
chemical reactions.
It appears you are trying to cover up the fact that you do not
understand or accept the dynamics of dense hydrogen.
