A month of electricity, won't even cover that now. If I moved to an EV and electric heating my bill would be more insane then it already is.

You get to offset gas for your car with less expensive electricity. We save about $100 or more a month in gas. Electric baseboard heating would definitely be expensive. Our oil bill was getting crazy bad, and with the recent inflation it would have been that much worse. Our heat pump keeps things comfortable at home in the winter and summer. If it gets too chilly we can use a space heater as we need. Overall per year we are still saving hundreds going electric.
