Electricity is optionality. Electricity can be generated from a vast number of sources. Coal, wood, natural gas, nuke, hydro, PV, wind, waves, geothermal, hydrogen fuel cell, hydrogen turbine, four mules turning a crank… Even burning diesel or gasoline to charge an EV can be more efficient than burning it in an engine in a vehicle, because the generator can be run at its optimal RPM 100% of the time, and doesn't need a complicated (& lossy) transmission.
