Through research and energy efficiency intervention in 7 pilots, the project monitors the impact of different measures for energy poverty on the physical and mental health and wellbeing of participants. Future research will also include cost-effectiveness analysis of the different interventions for energy poverty implemented in these pilot cities.

Some concrete key performance indicators include:

  • 7 urban programmes adapted to pilots context
  • 1750 people being part of the study, involving 875 people in the intervention group benefitting from support measures (and 875 as part of the control group

Regarding measurements:

  • 1750 questionnaires every 6 months during 1 year (M0, M6, M12, M18) 
  • 180 qualitative interviews on energy poverty and ill-health at different periods
  • Temperature, humidity and CO2 sensors data inside pilots households collected during 12 months
