20% more electricity generation for 100% EV adoption in the US is a figure I've seen quoted before. We need to "electrify everything" and for that (including home heating and industry) I've seen figures around doubling our electricity needs (while lowering our energy needs overall since burning stuff is so inefficient). Luckily, wind and solar are incredibly cheap sources of electricity and not burning fuel in inefficient cars (or home boilers) frees up a whole lot of fossil fuels for other tasks.
