    Except diesel, bunker and jet fuel and industrial natural use gas can’t be substituted by electrification.

      Diesel is used for trucking, which can be electrified and for heating, which also can. Bunker oil is mostly used because it is cheap. Jet fuel also can be replaced using high speed trains for quite a few journeys and for short ones there are electric planes. Industrial gas use is in many cases just heating, which can be done with electricity as well.
