Not sure I’m following your logic there. Yeah, it may well have been a massive waste of yet more taxpayer dollars to subsidize heat pumps that weren’t justified on their own: I don’t know. But they generally pull less from the grid than fully electric heating and cooling, so are useful there.
Fossil fuels (not that they are really “fossil” fuels) are still my favorites, btw.
“But they generally pull less from the grid than fully electric heating and cooling, so are useful there.”
I agree, and if people weren’t MANDATING heat pumps (or other electric heating systems) in lieu of fossil fuels, then I wouldn’t have a problem either.
