EV Adoption

MAY 25, 2021

One of the common arguments you hear from people in America who are not fans of the idea of electric vehicles is that they are mostly charged from electricity produced from coal power plants. Heavy Coal Using States Accounted for Only 10% of EV Sales in 2020. And so “EVs are bad.” of EV sales in 2020.
