Thank you.
I saw your picture of the wind in Iowa City. First, it has no reference and no explanations, second, it is probably for surface wind tracking, not what is needed to decide whether wind turbines (80 m ~ 260 feet) are useable over there; -third, it does prove my point, sort of, because a maximum of 16 mph (the grey area) is not enough to power most wind turbines, fourth, SE Iowa has much less wind currents than the NW and SW parts of the state where the turbines are. As a comparison today's weather in Lincoln NE had an average of 15 mph, there are no turbines in SE Nebraska as far as I know. I will post the maps later in the discussion. However you are correct that Iowa is at 55-60% wind utilization for electricity, so EVs have a real net effect on emissions. That is not the case here in NE, where coal+natural gas is still 71%, so hybrids are still a better option.
