The emissions from the EV are largely because we’ve not yet gotten fossil fuels out of electric generation.

    In the PNW, we’ve been all hydropower for generations.

      Depends a lot on which company, for instance while Bonneville is like 50% hydro and 6% fossil, Puget Sound Energy and Portland General Electric are currently something like 19% and 25% fossil fuel respectively in this last year and used to be far higher in the recent past.
