"fossil fuels still make up 60ish percent of energy" also defeats the argument that we must urgently get rid of gas stoves and gas heaters.
If the electricity is coming from a gas-fired power plant, that counteracts the efficiency gain of a heat pump. And cooking with gas-generated electricity is about 1/2 as efficient as cooking with gas directly.
Fix the power grid first.
