I listened to the first three minutes. It is skewed rubbish.
He claims CO2 emissions are 400g per KW in the Midlands. He may be right - but across the country his graphic shows a UK average of 221g.
It may have escaped his attention but the UK has a NATIONAL grid which allows energy generated in one place to be delivered in another. Any conclusions drawn on the basis of so skewed a proposition have close to zero credibility.
I also find his use of three cars so far removed from the normal experience of most motorists to be of questionable relevance as a piece of motoring analysis.
In his favour - he is an effective presenter and, a bit like the old "Top Gear", entertains - eg: "the most economical 200mph supercar". If you can buy one you really don't care about its green credentials!
