According to Miles Prosser, the secretary general of the International Aluminium Institute (IAI), with a worldwide reduction in demand due to the COVID-19 epidemic, the Australian aluminum industry is facing difficulty since the local aluminum producers have to face high electricity costs at disadvantage compared to other countries.
