Hey, you know what might be *really* efficient?

Instead of burning fuel at a power plant then converting that into electricity, then losing some in the power lines, then converting that electricity back into heat, why don’t we just burn fuel in the engine so that we can use the waste heat of combustion to warm the interior!

I wonder why hasn’t anyone ever thought of doing...oh, wait.
