Right, I would venture to say that those mini splits are in a category of their own. Although correct me if I'm wrong but those are considered to be more like a "space heater" than a whole home solution? I didn't read the entire article to see exactly how they derived these numbers but did find it interesting.

However you slice it I think this is accurate in that heating with electricity is generally the most expensive.
