In low external temperatures, the battery is quickly brought up to operating temperature with the aid of an electric heating element.

And last spring, the company redesigned the oven, replacing the traditional light bulb used for baking with an electric heating element, then switching the oven's door from the side to the front.
Much of the avoided energy consumption will come from the switch to carbon-neutral district heating (rural households will switch from oil, natural gas, and electric heating to heat pumps and biomass burners).

While it is expected there will be an increased demand for electric power as heating and transport are converted to electricity, total Scottish demand for electricity is targeted for a fall of 12%.
While the market for electric vehicles is heating up, with waiting lists for both the Nissan Leaf and the Chevy Volt and startup companies like Tesla, Arcimoto, and Coda Automotive upping their games, some industry watchers still wonder whether electric vehicles will ever become a significant part of the auto market.
Depending on an applicant's needs, it will pay for things such as loft insulation, draught proofing, gas room heaters with thermostat controls, gas, electric or oil central heating.
In-floor electric heat mats provide backup heating when there is not enough sunshine.
Smith provides water heating products and electric motors for residential and commercial applications.
Smith (NYSE:AOS), a manufacturer of water heating equipment and electric motors, Armstrong World (NYSE:AWI), a producer of flooring products and ceiling systems for use primarily in the construction and renovation of residential, commercial and institutional buildings.
Markets do not design new systems new patterns of transport and housing, new technologies for electric power, for vehicles, for heating and cooling.

Micro-CHP encompasses a spectrum of energy technologies that produce heat (which can be used for space heating and hot water) and electric power simultaneously.
Among the energy-saving options, two promising technology switches are the electrification of transportation (electric vehicles can be about four times as energy-efficient as standard fossil-fuel vehicles) and the use of electric-powered heat pumps to deliver winter heating and hot water (heat pumps can be four times as energy-efficient as standard heaters).
And deeper into the paper you find that they mean LEDs reducing electricity consumption for lighting, more efficient home heating, more insulation, better cars (perhaps electric) and so on.
The photographer could only shoot Upton outside for a couple of minutes at a time before the crew, all bundled from head to toe, would rush to put heating pads in her bathing suit and cover her with electric warming coats.
This can be done by heating the gas (a thermal plasma) or passing an electric current through it (a non-thermal plasma).
