In NA, steel is standard. I’ve never seen a copper hotwater tank in Canada. I think that used to be somewhat common in Europe, but copper is freakin’ expensive now so that’s gone by the wayside, as well.

Steel tanks, that’s why the sacrificial anode is there so the water eats it away instead of the tank.
