On this page, you may find EPAH indicators organised by topics for each European country. In this indicators collection, we use publicly available EU-wide datasets, so you may find that some data is unavailable for specific years or countries due to the timeline of data collection for such datasets, their geographical coverage or the update at the EU level of these statistics. However, this does not mean that the specific country does not have this or similar information to explore. You may like to visit national statistical databases to find more details on a particular topic.

Bear in mind

This indicator may primarily capture poverty in general, cross-examination with impact assessments of energy-related social policies would be needed for using the indicator in an energy poverty diagnosis.
Learn more

This indicator provides insight into climate variables and the building’s energy needs for cooling, which is intrinsically connected to energy poverty. However, it does not account for buildings’ energy efficiency or affordability, which can vary significantly across households and regions. Moreover, the indicator focuses on average temperatures, and it is not the most appropriate to capture short-timed temperature fluctuations, such as heat waves, which can considerably impact residential energy consumption and thermal comfort. Combining it with indicators such as the "Final Energy Consumption in Households" and "Inability to heat or cool", can help build a more comprehensive picture of energy poverty.

This indicator is an effective tool for assessing the economic well-being of EU households and identifying locations at risk of energy poverty due to low disposable income levels. However, it cannot fully reflect the complexities of energy poverty and should be complemented with additional variables relating to energy use, efficiency, and specific energy-related expenses.
Learn more

Being the only indicator that directly focuses on this dimension, it is of significant relevance for national assessments. However, focusing only on energy label A leaves behind information on the worst performing buildings, and additional indicators on the economic and social dimensions can significantly expand the use and relevance of this indicator in an energy poverty diagnosis. Learn more

It is advisable to cross-analyse this indicator with others related to building energy efficiency, energy expenditure, income levels, population density, material deprivation, or access to medical services, as they would enable the ruling out of some possible misrepresentations. Learn more

Owning an air conditioner is not a synonym for not being in energy poverty. A household might not use it, use other equipment for space heating, or live in a region with mild summers where natural ventilation is enough. Learn more

The fact that a household owns equipment does not necessarily mean that they use it often or at all. Thus, the cross-analysis of this indicator with data on space heating patterns, including duration, schedule, and proportion of space heated, as well as the type of energy carrier, equipment age, and efficiency, can provide more detailed conclusions. Learn more

This indicator refers foremost to the consequences of poor construction practices of dwellings and humid indoor conditions and may not be directly connected to situations of energy poverty but can also be a consequence of an inability to keep the house adequately warm. Studying these two indicators together may provide a more complete picture of the problem.
Learn more

Summer energy poverty is an increasing concern in the EU and is still an overlooked issue. Combined with knowledge of the ownership of cooling systems and space cooling energy consumption patterns, this indicator can be useful for a comprehensive understanding of summer energy poverty vulnerabilities. Learn more

Being a subjective indicator, the self-reporting of thermal comfort is influenced by a series of factors for consensual-based indicators such as gender, age, socioeconomic situation, culture, and social practices, which justify various possible results both within one- and across countries. Learn more

The cause of death can be determined by a diversity of factors, some of which might be related to a situation of energy poverty. By identifying the main cause, this indicator does not reflect all the risk factors contributing to mortality. Thus, it should be analysed jointly with the "Pop. reporting chronic disease" indicator to identify potential contributing factors and their relationship with energy poverty. It should be mentioned that variations in medical diagnosis may result in unequal reporting across regions or countries.
Learn more

This indicator refers to an individual's perception of ‘adequately', which may differ from one country to another or between age groups, etc. The indicator only refers to the warmth and does not cover summer energy poverty. The indicator does not provide information on the causes for the inability; hence, it should be analyzed together with other indicators, such as energy expenditures, to identify potential causes.
