Aluminum oxidizes in air. No energy input is needed. They are using scrap aluminum. Cans, parts or what ever. The aluminum they use already exists, and millions of tons are thrown in waste sites annually. The aluminum oxide is removed from the aluminum by the reaction of the gallium aluminum alloy in water at room temperature.

Maybe they are not building a system to compete with a Plaid. Carbon wrapped motors are not necessary on the average car, and we don't know what the innovations are but may find out at CES. It could be they are cheaper, or easier to design around.

Canada was the second largest producer until the Chinese producers undercut them. Time to get Canada's plants operational again. One Noranda plant in Quebec can extract magnesium from the tailings left over from the previous asbestos mining.

How much CO2 is generated during the extraction of the natural gas (methane)? How much of the methane is leaked to the atmosphere? It seems the better path is through the extraction of hydrogen from seawater, of which we have no shortage. https://www.pv-magazine.com/2021/02/04/novel-catalyst-produces-green-hydrogen-from-seawater-via-solar/
