"As you can see, cordwood is the least expensive heating fuel for Pennsylvanians, and has been for the past twenty years--even when compared to natural gas prices. Not only that, but wood fuel prices are pretty stable over time, whereas oil and natural gas tend to jump around a bit. Electricity and fuel oil are especially expensive when compared to cordwood in Pennsylvania."
