67% of US electricity is generated by fossil fuels, so for most people the price of electricity would skyrocket too.<p>Nuclear power accounts for 19%; those in a nuclear power plant&#x27;s coverage zone would see EVs being cheaper than gasoline-powered cars, unless you factored in the nuclear waste storage problem. Those near powerful rivers can benefit from the 7% of electricity from hydropower dams.<p>Wind and solar together are less than 5% of US electricity generation and basically irrelevant as a source of power for our transportation needs.<p>EVs are not a panacea; cities are. Demolish the suburbs, build vertically, live within walking distance of things, and you won&#x27;t need so much energy.
