Book excerpt: Northern Ireland has the highest levels of fuel poverty in the UK. The Northern Ireland House Condition Survey 2006 records 34 per cent of households in fuel poverty, compared with 11.5 per cent of households in England, 27.5 per cent in Scotland and 20 per cent in Wales. Recent increases in fuel prices have exacerbated the problem and drawn even more households into fuel poverty: the Department suggested that perhaps 40 per cent of all households in Northern Ireland are now fuel poor. The Warm Homes Scheme (the Scheme), established by the Department in July 2001, provides a range of home insulation measures to vulnerable households in the owner occupied and private rented sectors. Warm Homes Plus, an extension of the Scheme, provides for new heating systems as well as insulation measures to qualifying householders aged over 60 years old. The Scheme is seen as the primary tool for eliminating fuel poverty amongst vulnerable owner-occupiers and private rented households by 2010, a target set in the 2004 Fuel Poverty Strategy. However, without a significant revision to the Scheme and a concerted effort by departments, the energy companies, and the regulator, it is unlikely that this target will be met. The result is that many, including some of the most vulnerable in our society, will continue to experience fuel poverty and be left to make the choice between "heat or eat".

Book excerpt: Since its publication in the early 90s, Brenda Boardman's Fuel Poverty has been the reference text for those wishing to learn about this complex subject. In this, its successor, she turns a critical eye to the new millennium and finds that the situation, while now more widely recognised, is far from having improved. The book begins by discussing the political awakening to the issue and exploring just who constitutes the fuel poor. It examines the factors that contribute to fuel poverty - low incomes, high fuel prices and poor quality housing - and looks at and evaluates the policies that have been employed to help reduce the problem. The latter part presents a detailed set of proposals based around long-term improvements in the housing stock that must be employed if we are to avoid a dire situation continuing to get worse. Based on detailed analysis of the situation in the UK, the growth of fuel poverty (sometimes called energy poverty) in other countries and the new focus in European policy makes the book timely and provides important lessons for those who now have to produce policies to tackle the issues.

This book was released on 2010-03-30 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is fifth report from the Energy and Climate Change Committee (HCP 424-I, session 2009-10, ISBN 9780215553416) and looks at the issue of fuel poverty. The Committee states that the Government is going to miss its target to end fuel poverty amongst vulnerable households in England in 2010. The target to end fuel poverty for all households in England by 2016 also looks difficult to hit. The Committee's report is a stocktake of performance in tackling fuel poverty and sets out areas of concern which the Committee want to see addressed in the new Parliament. It sets out a number of recommendations, including: a 'road map' to be drawn up, setting out how fuel poverty is to be tackled in greater detail; the Government to consider whether a database of domestic energy efficiency should be set up; a sharpening of the focus of the Warm Front scheme so that it helps those most in need; an urgent review of the market for fuels bought by people who are not connected to the mains gas grid.
