Copper is the new gold, with the market coiled for new higher prices.

Aluminum has 61% of the conductivity of copper, but has only 30% of the weight of copper. So an aluminum wire with the same capacity of copper weighs half as much.

Thus another metals play for expanded electric grids could be aluminum for major transmission lines, but the aluminum market is plagued by huge global over-capacity.
