Aluminium is an essential metal to everyday life, and crucial for the transition of energy and transportation towards a lower carbon future. Modern life could not exist without aluminium in our buildings, cars, trains, planes, phones, food containers, cooking utensils, electricity infrastructure, televisions, and household appliances. Further, aluminium is one of the most important materials underpinning renewable energy generation in solar panels, wind turbines and transmission wires and also in the bodies and batteries of electric vehicles.
