  Depends where you live. We spend more of the year running AC here.

  This is true only if your home is running an electric heater. Burning hydrocarbons like natural gas, oil, and wood to heat your home directly is more efficient than using them to run a turbine to generate electricity, then run that electricity many miles to your home, then turn it into heat.

      District heating[1] has been around for a long time. At least here in Finland most people in cities use it. [1]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/District_heat https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/District_heat
