Put another way the NW with 60% renewable is 3x higher than NY, which mixes its hydro with Nukes and avoids the use of coal.. If you assume 60% renewable with natural gas as the peak/remainder then your still 2x higher than France.
These graphs prove the failings of modern "green energy" because all that hydro was built 50+ years ago, and if instead of fighting Nukes and getting coal plants the environmentalist would have embraced Nukes we wouldn't really be talking about CO2, particularly if the widespread use of breeders brought the price down so that buying electric cars made sense without the huge subsidies both in purchase price and electric charging.
Put another way, making electric cheaper via modern fission would make electric cars more appealing than the unsustainable subsidy models currently in use.
