Dozens of public housing apartments will get plug-in induction ranges as part of the initiative, which aims to eventually shift 10,000 NYCHA homes off the use of polluting fossil fuel appliances.
There are some pros and cons like better for environment and health but also some people might think more about electricity being more expensive. Although, because of how efficient induction stoves are, it might be closer than I thought
Electricity could be more expensive per unit, but it also doesn’t generally have minimum amounts for delivery to keep the stove functioning, at least, so it’s a bit of a trade off. I remember growing up, we just stopped using the stove and oven and did everything on the grill, year round, because the company that served our area for cooking gas wouldn’t make a delivery for less than $200 worth of fuel. $200 was way more than my parents had to spare for it at the time, and also like pre-paying for 9-10 months at a time, versus month to month with the electricity bill.
