Fuel Poverty and the Housing Stock: A London Case Study

摘要

Fuel poverty is commonly defined as a household needing to spend 10% or more of its disposable income on fuel bills to keep warm and is a product of a complex interplay of variables: building fabric, household income and energy prices [1], compounded by dwelling under-occupancy. The experience of fuel poverty has been linked to multiple other social wellbeing issues such as health and educational attainment [2].
