Automakers Partnering with Solar Installers to Maximize Eco-Value of Electric Vehicles

The world is acutely aware that, in some cases, plugging in an electric vehicle means burning more coal, and that this is a net negative to the environment, not only in terms of greenhouse gas emissions, but in terms of toxic chemicals as well. 

While the big automakers don’t talk about this openly, they are, to their credit, coming up with programs like this, in which they partner with large solar installers to minimize the use of electricity from the grid—regardless of its ultimate source.

Good stuff, IMO.
