Induction stoves are almost 2x more efficient than gas stoves in regards to how much of the output energy ends up in the pot or pan.

So unless gas is 1/2 the price of electricity where you are at, induction still wins!

Oh and because gas puts approximately 50% of its heat into the environment and not the cookware, it can cause an increase in AC costs in the summer!

In the UK, gas has been roughly a quarter of the cost of electricity for decades.

I find it hard to believe given global markets that it is more than half of the cost in more than just a few extreme parts of the world.

Or a decrease in heating costs in the winter. :)
