The part right before that is much more interesting. I quote

  >> The platinum is actually a little bit below the surface and it's activating the gallium atoms around it. So the magic is happening on the gallium under the influence of platinum.

So the gallium is doing the catalysis, but only when a platinum atom is somewhere around the gallium - spooky action at a distance stuff.

With Gallium doing the work, that explains "why we need so little platinum" detail.

The specific catalysis they're doing is "electrochemical methanol oxidation", so I assume this is a direct Methanol fuel cell catalyst.

Hopefully, someone is trying this in a LENR cell.
