The heating oil and propane sellers are running ads, websites, etc. to try to convince people not to electrify, but they are losing the battle.
Sad people are so stupid as to put all their reliance into one system. Doesn't matter how efficient heat pumps can be, they require electricity and therefore only as reliable as the grid they are connected to. My fiancée spent a small fortune switching out perfectly good gas furnace for a heat pump system that promptly failed to provide enough heat durning last year's cold snap. Had to install a secondary mini-split system (Samsung HyperTherm). It's been doing better this year but they still have the kerosene heaters out and ready and at least one side of the house still has its natural gas furnace in place.
