"we still stay within Baseline consumption, which means less than about 10kWh a day."I use 10kWh to drive 21 miles to work each day one way with my 2014 Chevy Volt, another 10kWh to drive home!

However it makes it big difference when you can do a lot of chores using 120vac appliances. We replaced the 1935 electric water heater with a new one in 2015. We bought a used Bosch ventless clothes dryer for a hundred bucks. Bought three induction cook plates new or used for 50 bucks or less each. Bought a $99 Oster French door oven which will do 16-inch pizzas or a small turkey as well as casseroles. Have a crockpot. We use space heaters so I suppose it would be cheaper to go heat pump. I'll talk to Cor about that. All in all we did it on the cheap even selling our old gas stove which paid for all the induction hot plates. Very convenient. You can move them around and put them away to make room to chop food. Our total transportation and household energy cost was $450 for last year which included transportation with EVs totaling 12k miles for two cars and all household usage. We did try to use energy while the sun shines and took advantage of free charging at work and at Nissan dealers. Lawrence Rhodes....
