There isn't a lot in the realm of heating that's remotely sexy and also practical, but a couple of things edge into the quadrant, including ... hydrogen.

assessments, hydrogen appliances barely exist, aren’t certified, aren’t zoned for, have no safety regulations associated with them, would require expensive hydrogen detectors, are much more likely to cause explosions and would be vastly more expensive to operate than existing, much lower risk electric alternatives. You really have to be stuck in a paradigm where the only sources of heat are burning gases or be a purveyor of gases to burn to think that this is a remotely good idea.

Speaking of cooking, let’s talk about cooking with gas. You have to give it to the natural gas industry, they have a flare for marketing that coal and oil must envy, starting with calling methane “natural” gas. The 1930s ad campaign to convince people to pipe explosive, polluting gas into their kitchens and then burn it to create indoor smog instead of using electric stoves was remarkably effective.

There are faster heat, cheaper, much safer, much lower carbon, much healthier alternatives now, which I’ll talk about later in this article. Cooking with gas has to be a thing of the past, and restaurant chefs who have switched to the alternative swear by it. One of the things I can’t help but notice are articles talking about actually useful solar photovoltaic generation that are decorated with concentrating solar power. Those concentric rings of mirrors around a tower certainly are photogenic, but they barely exist in the real world. I wish people who published stuff would figure that out, because they feed the availability bias of people globally who think this is a useful and viable technology instead of a mostly dead fringe.
