Well twice the voltage gives half the transmission losses, which gets important when you are using a lot of power for heating. UK is 240 V single phase, or 480 V (415) for the 3 phase.
I was just considering that might be an explanation for your idea that "Green electricity is another delusional fantasy when it comes to residential heating in an extreme cold climate.". If that was not the explanation then maybe you could explain the real reason?
The more you indulge in pharisaical boasting and taunts, the more you sound like a bratty little schoolboy, Nigel.
That you would have us believe the UK to be some sort of ecological Shangri-La, which it most certainly isn't, is the reason I characterize your UK eco-braggadocio as a green delusional fantasy, massive international energy imports, including Russian coal aside.
The more you slight other nations, typically the USA, but more recently Australia and now Canada, the more you break the rules of this forum.
The more you habitually engage in manufacturing petty, gratuitous disputes, such as in this particular case, "your (USA's) electricity is only half the power of ours!" and the more you keep these sort of provocations going day after day, the more it becomes trolling. And, ultimately, Nigel, trolling usually ends up getting people banned from internet forums, as you know all too well.
It's really about time for you to pack it in and cut it out.
