[Future Mayor]

So how much energy is required to run a Volt, as compared to a gallon of gas? What I am trying to get at is, aren't we going to be requiring a substantial amount of additional power from our power plants in order to run our electric cars?

How much pollution will these power plants cause and how much of a reduction will it be per vehicle, compared to gasoline? Yes I know natural gas emits less than coal, but it still emits carbon dioxide into the air.
