In the context of electrification. I got rid of all gas from my house and use an induction cooktop for cooking.
Imagine the situation: I just took a warm shower, so the electric stove heats the water. I run the dishwasher to wash dirty dishes. In the meantime, I do laundry. Running the induction cooktop and oven at this point to make dinner causes the fuses to go off. There’s just too much of it, and I think it’s impossible to have literally everything on electricity. The electrical installations in many buildings are not suitable for such a load, so we need gas.
Aside from the fact that we have the most expensive electricity probably in the world, so it’s a terrible deal.
I know many people who do have all of the above-mentioned appliances electrical. And gas prices are also among the most expensive in the world (this is exactly why our electricity costs more…) ¯_(ツ)_/¯
A good reminder on the right-hand-side of the plot: Oil is still the top export of the US.
Gas and oil comprise around 16% of US exports:

If you want to BuyFromEU, and not from US, Russia, or Saudi Arabia, promote wind, hydro, nuclear, and solar, and electrification in general.
