I have to question to the statement: "Electric golf carts are emission free, and therefore better for the environment, which is also one of their biggest selling points". Emissions free? Where does all that electricity come from? Fact (from the U.S. Dept of Energy): "The nation's fleet of over 100 coal plants is responsible for 57 percent of the electricity generated in the U.S., more than any other single electricity fuel source." The statement that electric carts are "emissions free" is simply not accurate, and the facts are more complicated than the simplistic statement that an electric cart is "better for the environment".
