This graphic caught my eye as I was scrolling through LinkedIn:
The thing that immediately caught my eye is the large number of states that still rely heavily on coal. This should give everyone reason to question whether EVs (and electrification, in general) are an immediate solution to our climate-related problems. The second thing, though, was how many states now have some form of renewable energy producing the largest amount of electricity. The same article produces a breakdown of each energy source for North America, as a whole:
Source of Power Percentage
Natural Gas 44.32
Coal 20.8
Nuclear 8.83
Wind 8.62
Hydro 8.37
Solar 3.46
Oil 3.14
Other 2.46
Have a good weekend
