<p><strong> </strong></p><p>Fuel poverty is measured at household level. The official
statistics for the past three years for which data is available show that the number
of households living in fuel poverty has remained relatively stable.</p><p> </p><p>There
were 2.36 million households living in fuel poverty in England in 2012, this fell
slightly to 2.35 million households in 2013, then increased to 2.38 million households
in 2014.</p><p> </p><p>We believe the most sustainable way to address fuel poverty
is by improving the energy efficiency of homes occupied by those living in fuel poverty.
Between 2012 and 2014 the number of fuel poor homes with an energy efficiency rating
of E, F or G reduced by approximately 350,000.</p><p> </p><p><strong> </strong></p>
