    I’d like to go 100% electric. The plan is to install another 5k ish kWh of solar and reinsulate.

      If you can afford it, install the spray foam insulation that goes on the underside of the roof. We have a Habitat home/mortgage so it’s built for energy efficiency. Haven’t touched the AC since the hurricane two weeks ago. It takes hella heat to warm it up inside and I could almost go the winter without heat. Our power bill tops out at $180 in the summer.
