State of Charge: Electric Vehicles’ Global Warming Emissions and Fuel-Cost Savings Across the United States is a new report from the Union of Concerned Scientists.

"Electric vehicles (EVs) burn no gasoline and have no tailpipe emissions, but producing the electricity used to charge them does generate global warming emissions. The amount of these emissions, however, varies significantly based on the mix of energy sources used to power a region's electricity grid."
