Re: Electric should be cheaper, gas more expensive

In many of the more remote (and not so remote) areas electric is the only option unless you go down the oil/lpg

Both still need electricity to work.

Yes the costs need to reverse, insulation can only do so much and bluntly, only new builds can really provide the levels required to provide parity on running costs.

The crunch comes when new gas boilers cannot be purchased to replace failed units in existing installations.
