How clean is EV battery manufacturing?

Electric Auto Association

Green Energy Ohio plant in Dayton, OH. UCS also reported that once the grid is fully renewable, the number for EVs is reduced to 41 g CO2 eq./km. years if the car is charged using renewable energy. Whereas, battery EVs fueled on average grid electricity emit 105–124 g CO2 eq./km, So, how clean is EV battery manufacturing?
