Well, because you're using it as a heat pump to take heat from outside air and move it into your house. It's not like turning electricity directly into heat, that costs a lot more. 1 kilowatt will get you about 3400 BTU, as direct resistance heating. In a heat pump setup, that same kilowatt will net you a lot more BTUs, as it's 'moving' the heat in the outside air into your house.
