Aluminum is lightweight and highly conductive. It actually has greater conductivity than copper for the same weight.

Hedenius posted:Anything magnetic works. It’s basically copper and aluminum you can’t use. We've been building up our cooking pans since 1980 or so. We're not interested in replacing most of our most-used pans. Our next stove will definitely be electric, but unlikely induction. I've also read that it's a lot better for your lungs to get that inefficient carbon combustion out of the house. e: All-Clads are aluminum clad in stainless, with a copper disk sandwiched in the bottom for heat consistency.

Personally-held hot take: we should have hydrogen stoves. All the power and control of hydrocarbon gases, but there’s no carbon so no indoor air pollution. One of the big catches is that we would need seriously improved safety standards for gas leakage and detection. The explosive concentration band of hydrogen in air is extremely wide, and hydrogen leaks readily through microscopic gaps.

If you have solar panels on your roof or your power comes from a nuclear power plant or hydro or whatever then yeah, electric is probably less environmentally damaging than gas, and on the plus side it won't give your kids asthma. If your choice is to burn coal to run an electric stove or burn gas to run a gas stove it matters less except for your lungs.

Zedhe Khoja posted:it would be if the electrical grid wasn't dependent on fossil fuels. In addtion to what others have said about point-source, indoor air pollutants, we also have to consider the lifecycle emissions of getting that natural gas to homes. the natural gas system is insanely leaky and methane is a very potential greenhouse gas so the carbon intensity of delivering natural gas to everyone' homes is really massive compared to the grid now. we will have to stop doing it and shut down the entire system if we ever intend to take meaningful action on climate. that's why bans on new natural gas connections have started in the most climate accepting locales, to begin phasing out the system.

side note, major US power plants mostly don't burn coal any more they burn natural gas*, but Zedhe Khoja posted:it would be if the electrical grid wasn't dependent on fossil fuels. electric induction stoves are more efficient than gas stoves but 1% of US stoves are induction lol https://www.nytimes.com/wirecutter/blog/why-dont-people-use-induction-cooktops/ I am a bit skeptical whether traditional heating element electric is more efficient than burning NG, but I've been lied to about lots of stuff in the past though *nothing to do with environmental reasons, NG is just cheaper and more plentiful than coal now, at least in America

Platystemon posted:Cooking is about one percent of residential energy use. The issue isn't energy use, the issue is that we have to shut down the natural gas system because of the greenhouse gas emissions. (This is one of the myriad ways our government is failing us, by not starting the outreach making people understand what and why now to make those transitions later easier.)

electric coil stoves are significantly more energy inefficient than gas and are more expensive to operate as a result (this still isn't v much money). matt has his analogy backwards they're also shittier to cook on - they take longer to heat up and tend to heat unevenly however gas does have the problem with indoor air pollution, so make sure to always run your vent hood when it's on and you'll be fine
