Luckily switching to all electric heating will take long enough to give us time to increase generation capacity sufficiently. Everybody except the politicians setting the targets for renewable energy knows that electricity demand will be much higher in the future when everything runs on electricity.
Very often, green energy discussions forget that doing everything (heating, traffic, industrial processes) electrically needs an increase in electric capacity by a factor of 2 or 3 at least.
