The results of our recent study into the efficacy of the UK Government's current fuel poverty metric are described in the post below.
In short, we find that the true rate of fuel poverty in England is likely to be 2.5x higher than @energygovuk statistics suggest.
The number of households in fuel poverty across England could be 2.5 times higher than the government’s current metric states, according to new @UoNResearch.

Important new research led by @SempleTorran reveals that fuel poverty in England could be 2.5 times higher than the government's current measure indicates. https://t.co/8iwHhRUTMC
Very proud of this work! Check out our @Neodemographics latest publication📚🔍 https://t.co/OaumMQTiUF We show the value of using shopping data🛒 in respiratory disease forecasting models. And apply some very cool #AI explainability tools @HorizonCDT@EPSRC#HealthResearch
Findings include retrospective insights into the determinants of compliance, as well as recommendations on how governments might disseminate public health guidance in future public health crises.
