Abstract
The possibility of localized generation of heat and electricity (also for transport applications) on the basis of different aluminum oxidation methods is considered. Use of renewable energy sources for reproducing aluminum allows a closed energy cycle to be obtained and make it more environmentally clean and safe. Preliminary assessments of this method for distributing electric energy in comparison with alternative schemes are carried out.
