With a Model S getting 3 miles per kWh, and the average of the US grid getting 0.857 pounds of CO2 per kWh, the Model S would’ve produced 343k pounds of CO2. That’s a 78% emissions reduction from the 1.543 million lbs emissions from a 07 Tundra. And that’s with the current lackluster US grid currently only using 60% fossil fuels. In a decade, when coal has been phased out and solar ramp up has caused renewables to be a majority of the grid, I expect that 343k pounds to achieve another 75% reduction. That’s an average though, you can use your own solar panels to charge your Tesla and achieve practically zero emissions.
