Here you can find information on Nottingham's Fuel Poverty Strategy

Nottingham City Council is committed to creating a fair city where everyone has equal opportunities. One of the top priorities is to tackle fuel poverty by providing affordable warmth and healthy homes for all citizens.

Around 15% of households in Nottingham are affected by fuel poverty. To address this issue, the council has created a strategy framework and objectives in partnership with different organizations.

The strategy was launched in 2018 and will run until 2025. The council's work aims to eliminate E, F, and G EPC rated homes occupied by fuel-poor households and enforce new legislation to protect renters through Minimum Energy Efficiency Standards, in line with government goals.

Our intention

The long-term vision is

  • For Nottingham City Council, partners and citizens to be empowered to tackle fuel-poverty challenges in low carbon, embedded and sustainable approach.
  • To meet our aspirations, we are seeking to address the city’s challenges prioritising the most acute cases and areas first. We want to develop adaptive whole-house and person centred approaches.

The strategy tackles fuel-poverty in three key ways:

  • Reduce energy bills
  • Improve energy efficiency
  • Maximise household income

Looking to the future, our strategy will examine links between fuel-poverty, indoor air-quality and summer overheating.
