- nebula8804 2y agoThis data seems wrong. I'm looking at Nevada and they state that the majority of the power being generated is by gas. Doesn't the Nevada area get power from a wide array of nuclear + the Hoover Dam? To be fair it does say that at the time of access the data is an estimate but still...
