I'm a big solar users; however, gas is far more efficient and costs less than electricity for heating. When we had a huge price spike for natural gas last January, we used our mini-splits to offset using the gas heater. Trust me, it costs for electricity with SDG&E's rates than using gas.
My other concern is cost. Most people don't have the money to replace all their gas appliances. A new stove, clothes dryer and new heat pump system goes into many thousands of dollars. Needless to say, an electric stove costs substantially more than a gas stove. Of course, we'll also say goodbye to gas fireplaces.
