Tesla's production is quite clean. Anyway, an electric car can run off of pretty much any energy source. It's much more expensive to make gasoline from sunlight or nuclear power than charging a battery. (And, if you're wondering, yes, making gasoline from sunlight (biofuels) is a thing, and no, it isn't practical, and yes, people DO try.)
