But, right now ~61 percent of electricity produced for those EV's comes from fossil fuels. So let's get rid of ICE's and go EV's? Which are ultimately powered by fossil fuels? That grid you speak of needs to mature, and a lot, before this is a reality.
Coal alone generates more electricity in the United States than all renewable energy combined.
