Um, they can't / don't know how I am using electricity. And we actually still use an average amount of electricity. I'll look again this coming month, but the total usage for my family of four with multiple computers is less than 700kWh / month. Granted, we use gas for heat, hot water, cooking, and clothes dryer, but none the less, we use a fairly small amount of electricity.
Eventually, we will be putting a solar PV array on our roof, and will be heating with mini splits, and using a heat pump water heater, and maybe an induction stove (about 90% efficient, I think) and an electric clothes dryer. A solar PV array will likely pay for itself in about 10 years - without any of the incentives.
I want to totally leave fossil fuels behind, in say 4-5 years. And having an EV is the best first step.
