And, the tables include gms CO2 /kWh under various assumptions.
The tables are available on line, and I have a table on my computer here somewhere. I will have to send it later when I get back. (Have to get to work now.)

Thanks, that could be useful.
I continue to challenge Argonne for their GREET model which continues to deny the Second Law of Thermo, that is, they keep it in their model that electric energy is equivalent to heat energy, leading people to ignore the heat engine effect for conversion of heat to electric energy. This has to get fixed since they are a key national authority.
