Norway has the highest priced road fuels in Europe , and almost the lowest cost electricity, which is one of the prime reasons why urban Norwegians choose electric cars. I saw more Teslas in Trondheim this February than I have seen in the rest of Europe ever.

Although I don't have the data to hand, a fair amount of Norway's electricity is produced from HydroElectric power stations, so overall their CO2 emissions are going to lower per kWh of electricity produced.

They also have some vicious taxes on new cars - apart from electric ones that is!
