The Fuel Poverty Crisis in the UK 6 million households in fuel poverty (10% definition)

1.6 m children in fuel poverty in UK Higher risk of respiratory diseases Higher risk of mental health problems

Children in fuel poverty in UK Netmums Survey – 1 in 4 members choosing between feeding and heating

Elderly in fuel poverty in UK 6 million older people in fuel poverty

Elderly in fuel poverty in UK 31,100 Excess Winter Deaths last winter

Rising Energy Bills Energy bills have doubled since 2005

UK : bottom of Western Europe Fuel Poverty League Table

The Cause: The woeful state of Britain’s homes

UK vs Sweden Warmer UK winters Lower Energy Prices in UK Same Income 4 X more people unable to heat home in UK 20% higher rate of excess winter deaths in UK 70% more fuel poverty in UK Homes leak three times more heat in UK

Poor insulation = high risk of fuel poverty

Climate change: buildings 43% of carbon emissions

The long term solution Make homes super energy efficient

UK : funding reduced for fuel poor Financial support for fuel poor cut by 20% over course of this Parliament Financial support for energy efficiency measures for fuel poor reduced by 20% Warm Front axed in 2013

Green Deal – The Headlines

Energy Company Obligation ECO will remove up to 250,000 households from fuel poverty by 2023 Winter 2012 / 2013 – 300,000 more households fell in to fuel poverty

The Ask Use carbon revenues to make all fuel poor homes super energy efficient E3G - Third Generation Environmentalism 17

Target: Manifesto Commitments

The Carbon Revenue Prize £60 Billion Enough to super-insulate 9 million homes

The long term revenue stream Carbon revenues grow from £1 billion to £8 billion per year over 15 years

21 What could we achieve in a fuel poor home?

The Impact 9 million households super energy efficient Quadrupled carbon savings Generation of 128,000 jobs

Biggest Fuel Poverty Alliance Ever Created

Public Meetings Across UK

Media Coverage 5 national articles or broadcasts every week

The macro-economic case Cambridge Econometrics: Economic Impacts Short term investment stimulus – generates up to 71,000 jobs in 2015 – boosts economic output more than VAT cuts, fuel duty reductions and government spending – Best for growth Long term economic gains – Up to 128,000 jobs in 2027 – Lower gas imports – extra domestic spending – Best for growth

Political Support 205 MPs in support Third most supported petition in Parliament out of 1330 Liberal Democrats adopt as official party policy Labour to announce new Energy Efficiency Green Paper
