23. The off-peak power is baseload coal, and a bit of baseload natural gas
Natural gas is used as baseload power in states that have had growth in recent decades such as Florida and Colorado.

That Battelle report noted that the greenhouse gasses would be easier to control at the power plant than at (the automobile's) tail pipe. That's a bit weasily because we all know that there is no demonstrated CO2 sequestration technology.
