Gas is at risk of cut off this winter. Electric heating will be the primary source if that happens.
> In late June, after Russia reduced supplies by 60%, Berlin
triggered the second stage of its national gas emergency plan — one step away from gas rationing.
Electrical heating is impossible. There is neither sufficient generation, nor sufficient grid capacity, so matter how many of the nuclear plants we had we keep running. Even in a mostly-nuclear grid like France's you just don't have the spare capacity lying around to replace fossil fuels for heating in a year.
Heating homes with conventional electric heatpumps is a pipe dream but underground heat pumps which are getting more common can be really efficient no?
