For most of the U.S. electric is nearly triple the cost of gas. So
Go electric if you are rich

My heating bill with ZONED electric is approx 1/5 (20%) the cost of natural
gas. Why heat 3000 sqft when you use 400 sqft 90% of the time. We pay
6cents/KWH which is equivalent to NG from a 70% AFUE furnace. You need
approx 1 watt/cu ft for elec heat with average insulation and temerate
climate (Seattle) so a 10 x 10 x 8 room = 800 watts. Double that for the
midwest.
