Fuel Poverty: Aldershot

Asked by Alex BakerLabourDepartment for Energy Security and Net ZeroTabled Answered 20 December 2024UIN 20810

The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, how many and what proportion of care recipients are in fuel poverty in Aldershot.

Answered by Miatta Fahnbulleh

Fuel poverty statistics for England do not include a breakdown of whether residents of households receive care. Furthermore, the statistics are based on the English Housing Survey, which surveys households and does not include communal establishments. Therefore, the statistics do not cover residents of care homes.

The latest statistics for the number and proportion of households in fuel poverty in parliamentary constituencies in England can be found in the published sub-regional fuel poverty Official Statistics, in Table 5:
