Great to see energy bills cut by average £150 in the budget - with the focus rightly on tackling the disproportionate cost of electricity. This should make it easier for people to benefit from clean power, and support people on electric heating, who are often in the deepest fuel poverty 1/2

To reach #NetZero, millions will need to make their homes more energy efficient.

However, our new report, Home Stretch, finds that despite 19 million UK homeowners being interested in energy efficiency upgrades, two thirds are concerned about the cost.

Will Johnstone, Principal Policy Manager at @citizensadvice.bsky.social says their modelling shows 5 million people are in a negative budget, while 2.35 million are living on empty. #FuelPovertyConf

Great to hear the panel talking about standards, and enforcement of those standards, as key to delivering the right outcomes in retrofit.

Our Hitting a Wall report is well worth a read in this area: www.citizensadvice.org.uk/wales/policy...

Great to see Will Johnstone presenting our National Red Index at the @nea-ukcharity.bsky.social Conference.

That graph shows people seeking our support, unable to top up their prepayment meter, over the last decade - pretty easy to spot that the energy crisis is far from over.

Rt Hon Caroline Flint talks about the importance of accountability, assurance and good governance when it comes to retrofit.
Our 'Hitting a Wall' report talks about the importance of effective consumer protections in the same way www.citizensadvice.org.uk/wales/policy...

Excellent line up and an important question for the panel discussion

Great to be at the @nea-ukcharity.bsky.social #FuelPovertyConf and hearing from @miattafahnbulleh.bsky.social about the challenges faced by energy consumers, as well as how we respond. So important to put consumers at the heart of energy transition.
