Naomi-K says:

It's interesting the connection between oil and electricity.
Part of it is psychological. On the other hand, oil prices do effect electricity, especially coal based electricity. Oil is used in the transport and extraction of coal.
And also, oil is so central to all our commerce that its price has multiple side effects on our economy.
