The key is to lower emissions. However electricity is only a part of the transition. For a lot of the rest, the key is to electrify the processes. Heatpumps and EVs are two clear examples However both are much more efficent the their fossil fuel alternative in fact to the point that using 100%gas power plant electricity would lower emissions for them. Obviously at that point the only thing needed is to clean the grid, which already started.
