        Aluminum and the energy transition

        Aluminum has a critical role to play in the energy transition. The white metal’s strength and light weight make it the essential material for the construction of renewable energy infrastructure such as solar panels, wind turbines, power transmission systems, and the manufacturing of electric vehicles and other high-tech products.
