2000kwh a YEAR? Do you live in 70° weather year around and have all gas utilities or what?

No. It's district heating and not included on the electricity bill. I live north of the Arctic circle and a house from the same year with a heat pump would use an order of magnitude more.

The example was meant to highlight the absurd costs despite ludicrously favorable assumptions.

Interesting. For reference, I use more than that most months, but I live in Texas and it is very very hot.
