> Electricity is already cheaper than gas. Numbers on this claim? Gasoline is about $3US per 135 MJ. Electricity has to beat $0.08 per kwH to match that- which is pretty close to the current cost of electricity. What is the efficiency of the two systems, on average, to allow head-to-head competition? I suspect electric may finally win, but only because gas has nigh tripled in cost in the US over the last few years.
