Switching to electric doesn't have to be another case of sacrificing performance for efficiency. I've cooked on gas all my life, and there is literally nothing that my induction cooktop -- an ordinary middle-of-the-road unit -- does not do as well or better than gas other than blackening peppers directly over the flame. It boils water faster, melts chocolate more gently, generates no waste heat (so you don't need as powerful a range hood fan), cleans with a wipe, is easy to adjust, etc. etc. It's just fantastic.
