Keep in mind that gas infrastructure is leaky, which means that between two to seven percent of the gas that is pumped to your home is lost to the atmosphere before it arrives (depending on the age and maintenance status of the gas pipes in your area). Methane is a very potent greenhouse gas, and this leakage can easily tip the scales back in favor of heat pumps, even with electric transmission losses.
