Arguable electricity is the best technical solution to home heating.

"Electricity" is never a "solution" to anything.

Oh don't be silly.

AT THE HOUSE electricity is the smallest lowest capital cost and mots
efficient heating source of anything,.

You might as well say 'hot water is no solution to central heating.

Electricity needs to
be generated,

Really!? Go on, astound me more!

so the only solution can be an overall view of
electricity, its generation, transmission and use.


Sure, and carbon free electricity at modest capital cost and hifgh
reliability is easily achieved

Now comparing the relative efficiencies of electricity generation from
gas + long distance grids to piping gas for heating in the home more
directly is left as an exercise for the reader.

Who is talking *gas* generation for home heating?
