Perhaps. Both Norway and Finland have a population of a little more than 5 million, but Finland is at about 10GW, so a difference of double. Sweden at around 20MW net which is consistent with Finland pro-rata.
Did Norway just decide to do all-electric heating as vastly all electric power, as displayed here, comes from hydro?
Just idle curiosity.

The cities don't have gas infrastructure (with some minor exceptions), so if you want to have gas heating you need to store it on your property. In addition, the government discourages it. The vast majority of home heating in Norway is electric.
