The financial part of the article is why we're seeing extensive adoption in rural locations, where people depend on propane, but not in urban areas which are hooked up to the methane distribution system. Getting universal adoption is going to require making electricity cheap and providing support for the appliance switch itself.

Earthquakes is a worry but you can switch your stove to gas cylinder in less than 20 minutes, and they store for 2-3 years.
