12 FUEL POVERTY FORUM Policy Update 8 th November 2016 David Crookes Project Development Co-ordinator NATIONAL ENERGY ACTION
13 Agenda NEA conference key policy topics Committee on Fuel Poverty first report Get Warm Soon? report NEA s Top 10 Policy Priorities ECO update NEA at 2016 Political Party Conferences Digital Economy Bill Ofgem Update Touching the voids report New fuel poverty CAP web-resource Free training events
14 NEA conference key policy topics Changes to the design of the Energy Company Obligation and the Warm Homes Discount Regional devolution Data sharing for public bodies Revisions to the RHI CMA recommendations The opportunity for a new Government department responsible for coordinating fuel poverty across Britain and for implementing the fuel poverty strategy for England.
15 Committee on Fuel Poverty first report Recommendations include providing additional funds for energy efficiency from National Infrastructure funds Emphasis on improving the targeting of fuel poor households and strong support for new Data Sharing legislation References the need to target expenditure from the full suite of Government fuel poverty programmes and recommends government provides a 'targeting efficiency metric' for each fuel poverty programme Provides statistics on the shortfall of funding for meeting the 2030 target and interim milestones Recommends that fuel poor households are given help with fuel bills until their homes are improved Supports fuel companies to deliver energy efficiency programmes to fuel poor households but would like to see councils, charities and health agencies also play a greater role Recommends private landlords improve homes to minimum standards out of their own funds and also strengthening HHSRS enforcement etc. Read the all the recommendations and the full report:
16 Get Warm Soon? NEA assessed how far health and wellbeing boards (HWBs) in England are including relevant public health indicators in their joint needs assessments and strategies. Local application of NICE HWBs need to be supported to do this but equally we challenge local areas that have yet to publically state their own concrete plans to commission health and housing services NEA also highlight the Department of Health and Public Health England must establish a new system of national oversight and develop frameworks which consistently replicate NICE s new related quality standards
17 NEA s top 10 policy priorities The 10 priority areas highlighted are: 1. Ensure all current statutory commitments are met 2. Reduce the cost to health services of cold homes 3. Maximise incomes and reduce distributional impacts of energy policies 4. Take further steps to tackle exclusion in the energy market 5. Expand access to the Warm Home Discount Scheme
18 NEA s top 10 policy priorities (cont.) 6. Ensure current energy efficiency schemes are fit for purpose 7. Urgently improve conditions in the Private Rented Sector 8. Seize the wider smart energy and energy efficiency opportunity 9. Reform and refocus heat policy and provide adequate protections for district heating customers 10. Incentivise network companies to take greater action on fuel poverty

20 ECO update 16 th August NEA responded to ECO: Help to Heat consultation NEA has consulted our supporters extensively before and during this consultation Response captured feedback from NEA call for evidence and workshops at forums on the delivery of the current ECO programme NEA also held a workshop with its supporters in early August 2016 to provide an opportunity to discuss supporter s views and review the consultation questions You can read the main points we make in our ECO response here: and the full response here: content/uploads/2016/08/nea-response-to-the-eco-help-to-heat-final- 1.pdf Awaiting UK Gov response for the transition year (expected mid Dec) Consultation on the longer-term ECO programme from 2018 will be released in Jan 2017
21 NEA at 2016 Political Party Conferences Attendance at all of the main party conferences Ran a joint event with Sustainability Hub and spoke at events Highlighted the need to meet statutory targets and wider related commitments such as; Minimum energy performance standards in the private rented sector Tackling exclusion in the energy market Met with several influential politicians and stakeholders NEA also provides the secretariat for the All-Party Parliamentary Fuel Poverty & Energy Efficiency Group and met many MPs keen to address fuel poverty
22 The Digital Economy Bill NEA has produced a detailed briefing on how the Digital Economy Bill could play an important role in supporting energy companies to identify and deliver help to struggling energy consumers Highlights how these actions are in line with the Fuel Poverty Strategy for England Greater involvement necessary from local authorities, energy network companies and local public sector health bodies NEA also stresses that the new powers must be explicit that sensitive information regarding household income, benefit entitlements and energy costs should only be used for the purpose of directly improving the welfare of the individuals whose data is being shared For more information contact Peter Smith, Director of Policy and Research peter.smith@nea.org.uk
23 Ofgem update CMA implementation plan Current PPM installation charges under warrant can range from Ofgem proposed changes:
24 Ofgem update Ofgem have also released draft proposals for a new vulnerability principle when moving towards introducing Principle Based Regulation (PBR)
25 Ofgem confirm changes to Priority Services Register PSR Following previous consultations Ofgem has announced their decision to modify distribution and supply gas and electricity licences to formalise arrangements for a new PSR. Changes will come into effect on and from 1 January Changes are designed to better reflect Ofgem s Consumer Vulnerability Strategy and the move to principles-based regulation. NEA will make sure to work with you next year to track these changes to the PSR and raise issues with Ofgem, where necessary.
26 Touching the voids report: The impact of energy efficiency on landlord income and business plans Along with Rockwool and British Gas, NEA sponsored a new piece of research with Sustainable Homes Sets out to investigate whether energy efficiency improvements to homes that reduce energy bills provide any reduction in voids, rent arrears and other costs faced by landlords Inspired by examples from different social landlords that rent arrears and void periods reduce when properties are made more energy efficient This opportunity is set alongside deep challenges for social landlords where in the last 18 months have seen rent reductions, changes to grants, the extension of Right to Buy and the transition to universal credit, with residents becoming more responsible for their finances
27 The results. Twenty-five social landlords managing over 500,000 homes in England and Wales supported this research They provided data on the energy efficiency of their homes as measured by the energy Performance certificate (EPC) along with rent arrears and voids data The results are very promising and have helped quantify the following impacts: There is a correlation between the energy efficiency of the homes and the number of void days. As homes become more energy efficient they are void for a shorter length of time - on average band B properties remained void for 31% less time than those in bands E and F. Administration costs are considerable for voids. Landlords with more energy efficient stock are spending less on refurbishing void homes, less on repairs and less on staff time to manage voids The levels of rent arrears experienced by landlords ranged between 3.5% and 28%, with an average of 14% and there is a correlation between length of time in arrears and energy efficiency of homes. Colder homes, especially those in band F, have on average two weeks more rent arrears than the rest of the bands each year. The highest performing band A properties spent 30% less time in arrears compared with the worst performing homes. An analysis of further costs incurred shows that time spent seeking overdue rent payments, legal costs and court costs decline by around 35% for more energy efficient homes. The report is available here:

33 What is the Norwich Switch and Save? Collective switching occurs when a group of likeminded consumers band together to negotiate a better deal for their gas and electricity suppliers. A 3 rd party sets up the group and then negotiates a better tariff on behalf of the consumers they represent. The offer is then presented back to the group for members to decide to take action or not.
34 How it works
35 How it can help reduce fuel poverty Research showed that two thirds of registrants were from fuel poor groups Reduces fuel bills so those paying above average costs can pay less (one of the fuel poverty indicators) Holistic approach so that those who register are helped with energy efficiency measures via Cosy City and helped with income maximisation
36 Energy Advice: Norwich Big Switch and Save Amount of registrations in total : 17,908 people Average saving: 200+ If everyone switched the scheme would have saved 3,223,440! Just in Norwich! Open to everyone Homeowners Tenants Prepayment meters Businesses
37 Example of a Switch and Saver Mrs K (80 years old) was paying 110 a month on heating. She was struggling to pay her bills and keep warm all day. She registered for the switch and save and was offered a 300 saving a year. Her bills were being estimated, so when she switched over she was given back the 100 credit that she was owed. When she switched she received the warm home discount 114 off her electricity bill and was put on the priority service register. The council helped her install a smart meter, so her bills are not estimated.

40 Fuel Poverty: A perfect storm High energy costs Falling incomes Poor housing stock People not accessing grants Off gas properties Lack of understanding of energy markets and low levels of switching
41 High cost low income indicator Increasing energy costs Increasing income
42 Fuel poverty: risk factors The Individual Low income High fuel costs Fuel payment method Unemployed Age year olds Older person Multi persons dependent children Medical condition The Property Age Size Poorly insulated Solid walls Inefficient heating system Off gas network Tenure private rented sector
43 What is happening in Norwich? Fuel poverty in Norwich 10.5% residents in fuel poverty Early 1900s terraced housing Large private rented sector Low-incomes Price of Fuel Over 80 excess deaths in Norwich each winter highest rate in Norfolk Fuel poverty is bucking the trend in Norwich and decreasing!
