Correct, wing anti-ice valves are AC motor operated, at least thats what my FCOM say. I have something in my memory about electrically controlled and pneumatically operated, but that might have been the classic or the rest of the pressurization system. Regardless of switch position on the ground they can switch open or closed depending on several input variables, most important ones are thrust setting and temperature inside the wing distribution ducts.

The graphics are stunning in that video, however the simulator is missing a button on the MFD control panel
