Default Gas or Electric Heat?

Central Kentucky KU Energy Actual bill 10/26/06

base rate (not full electric) 0.053629343629344 per KWH
Actual rate with all the crap and taxes added on 0.068429858429858 per KWH

Total electric is a little cheaper.

dont forget thesignificant cost to upgrade the service, plus to make
such a change cost effective electrical must be significantly less.

otherwise the capital costs will prevent payback/.

lets imagine a existing 3 year old 80% GAS FURNACE

now imagine electic per btu is less....

after paying or a new service, and new furnace the difference must be a
lot.......
