A quick search reveals that ~35-50% of California's electricity comes from Natural Gas. Basically EVs in California are methane powered ICEs by proxy. I find it quite annoying that government keep subsidizing EVs when the infrastructure to make them actually environmentally friendly is not in place.
The only place owning an EV is actually environmentally friendly in North America is Quebec since 95% is generated by Hydro.
