My house is cold, the extra heat is welcome here. I only have electric heat.

Why is that? Your electricity might be from renewable resources. Or a non-renewable that is more efficient in total than using gas directly.

My choices are grid, solar, propane. I only use propane as emergency power backup.

I use solar power. Also, in nearby San Jose, California, they have banned NG in all new construction except commercial or multi family residences taller than 3 stories.
