National Fuel Poverty Charity’s Reaction to Fuel Poverty Review Interim Report
An annual report that monitors fuel poverty across the UK has today been published, highlighting the fact that the relentless increase in the scale of fuel poverty across all four nations of the UK continues despite the efforts of the Westminster Government and the devolved administrations of Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.
The UK Government is committed to a number of statutory objectives relating to energy security, renewables, climate change and fuel poverty. Compliance with this mix of environmental and social obligations has proven to be both challenging and costly and will continue to be so if Government objectives are to be attained.
The UK’s leading fuel poverty charity National Energy Action (NEA) has today welcomed Energy Minster Chris Huhne’s pledge that the needs of fuel poor households will be prioritised in the proposed Green Deal, due to be launched next year.
