"Using electricity strictly from coal, EVs still would reduce CO2 by 0%-59% compared with ICEs (one analysis found 0% change; six others found reductions of 17%-59%)... On the other hand, if electricity comes from solar or wind power, EVs eliminate all emissions. Using natural gas to make electricity, emissions fall in between those from coal and renewable power."

Most of the Well to Wheels data originates from an application called Greet from the Argonne Nat Lab: http://www.transportation.anl.gov/modeling_simulation/GREET/.

I tried it about three years ago, and just installed it again.  It's a little klugy, but can give very interesting results.  Best of all, there is no cost to use Greet.
