You're not allowed to get a gas stove in California any more. Good thing we never have electric supply issues.

- tstrimple 5y agoThis isn't true. The requirement is just that new constructions are ready for electric appliances. It doesn't ban natural gas. https://www.sfchronicle.com/local/article/No-more-gas-stoves-California-prepares-to-16161119.php https://www.sfchronicle.com/local/article/No-more-gas-stoves... > A draft code update released Thursday by the California Energy Commission would require new single-family homes to be equipped with circuits and panels that would allow them to be powered by all-electric appliances for heating, cooking and drying clothes. > The new code would not prohibit natural gas infrastructure, a step many environmentalists would like the state to take. But if the draft is ultimately authorized by the commission this year, it would require new homes to be “electric ready,” meaning they’re prepared to be transitioned away from gas appliances if any are used initially.
