Here: 0.2 now (with cap/£400) + Guess 0.4 in April 2023. (without help)

(+ food rises etc. making it dire!!! COL helps but soon disappears!)


What's your ratio?



Fuel Poverty Ratio = Fuel costs (usage x price) / income.

If the above ratio is greater than 0.1 then the household is Fuel Poor.

    Thank you for sharing this @fluffycat :) Where did you find the calculation? I'm not sure if I've come across it before. It looks interesting. 

    I suppose maybe it's the income you have available to spend in that case, @Biblioklept
