Not like I don't try, we heat our home 50% of the time with a wood stove, and 50% off propane (saves on the cost of having the trucks pump us propane). But water heater, kitchen stove, oven, etc is all electric. We replaced all our incandescent etc a while ago.
I do home-brew, so I also have some extra chest freezer costs, but they run at higher temperatures and are fairly efficient. I'm pretty sure if we had natural gas we could drastically drop our electric bill and the 6 or 7 kw system (whatever it is considered) would produce plenty of power.
