3/ I understand the EDCs working to the keep the LDCs in business reaping the ~10% return on equity the $40B GSEP guarantees (they make their money on infrastructure not gas, of course) but those reduced size ASHPs will never be inadequate for whole home heating. Then what? Fossil forever?

1/ Synapse, MassDOER's consultant in the Grid Modernization Advisory Council process, is recommending incentivizing hybrid heating systems, that is undersized ASHPs with retained fossil heating for winter months. While speaking to this slide they said hybrid heating would achieve 95% GHG emissions.
