Agreed in general. 2 points about electric one pro, one con. 1 - There is always a conversion cost in energy so whatever you had, if it was oil or natural gas

Agreed in general. 2 points about electric one pro, one con. 1 - There is always a conversion cost in energy so whatever you had, if it was oil or natural gas, had more energy you could have used before you converted it. Transmission costs are lower, so maybe that partially counters this. 2 - Electrication, if we relate it to a software design principle, is like loose coupling. You can change the underlying code as long as the output (interface) is electricity, the implementation details are hidden from the rest of the system.
