A quote on the topic:

“What we need is a rapid transition to 100 % clean, renewable energy and storage for everything while also addressing non-energy emissions. This transition involves electrification of most everything – vehicles; building heating and cooking; industrial processes – and providing the electricity entirely with 100 % renewable energy. This will half primary energy but doubles electricity demand. Thus, more energy will be electricity. Electricity is the new oil. A full supply of renewable energy is technically feasible and economically profitable.”
