Gas heating is much more effing than electric heating so it all depends on your situation whether you can heat a room quicker and cheaper with electricity. It is true that every degree you heat above the ambient temperature requires more energy the higher you go, but that's also true for electricity. If for example it takes you 300kJ to heat your room one degree, gas will get you to that degree with about 380kJ whereas it will take an electric heater well over 500kJ. This might still be profitable for you if you can get enough solar power or if there is a huge discrepancy between electricity and gas in your contract.
