I would add energy generation to ICE fuel. This is about 84-86% of total I believe

  This, and it's murky because a good chunk of that used directly by ICE will move over to power generation to power EVs -- it's not as if we're anywhere close to 100% renewable power even just for EVs here. There's a good EIA graph about halfway down on https://www.weforum.org/stories/climate-action/us-fossil-fuel-consumption-eia/ https://www.weforum.org/stories/climate-action/us-fossil-fue... that breaks it down.

    For both transport and home heating you need to remember that the electricity is hugely more efficient in these roles. So not only is some of that electricity from a renewable source, you also need much much less electricity than you did liquid fuel in the first place because it was more efficient.
