Electricity here is €0,30-0,40/kWh after tax. (Netherlands) (For fixed contact, dynamic contacts have bigger variation). That makes it way more interesting to save on energy. Although getting solar panels is still the fastest investment. Heat pumps typically have 10-15years payback time, especially now they are insanely overpriced due to Ukrainian-Russian war and climate goals increasing demand and lowering supply.

so when electricity costs drop by 15–20× the payback time will be 150–300 years?
