> Brownberger seems to miss the key fact that you can't run a gas heating system on renewable energy.

Of course you can. You can use nat-gas-like gas mixtures from decomposition of different kinds of waste, e.g. biomethane and the like. You can also use hydrogen (within limits) and methane produced from green hydrogen (though usually inefficiently).
