The whole point of a heat pump is you get a thermodynamic gain. One watt of motive power can bring three watts of heat into your house, more or less.

A gas power plant has a thermodynamic loss, you need three watts of heat to get one watt of power. You can come close to 1/2 with a very elaborate power plant. It's still hard to win with transmission losses.
