The largest "but" is that they only look at electricity generation, not energy in general. There's a lot of heating with natural gas and of course most cars still have internal combustion engines which burn petrol or diesel.

Heating with gas is difficult to phase out since it's a major investment. It would require large-scale build out of remote heating.

Replacing IC engines is a whole different story, and it's not clear whether electric cars are a complete replacement yet.
