TL;DR: In future evaluations of health impacts, clinical outcomes could be more comprehensively augmented with measures that extend beyond physical health, including measures reflecting quality of life, changes in patterns of social engagement and daily routine, and their concomitant impacts on mental wellbeing.

TL;DR: The authors traces the earliest formulations of the concept, focusing particularly on the 10% needs to spend threshold which was adopted in 1991 and remains in place some 20 years later, and argues that understanding more about the origins of this threshold yields a more critical understanding of why fuel poverty targets in the UK have not been reached, and enables a more informed approach to setting realistic targets for the future.

TL;DR: An alternative estimation method is proposed, based on heating degree days, which could yield more accurate estimations of the public health implications of cold weather in Europe, and how these vary across different countries.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explored the interaction between households, incomes and domestic energy efficiency at household level, and the diversity of fuel poverty which results amongst households in Northern Ireland, a region particularly prone to fuel poverty.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used Geographic Information System (GIS) techniques to evaluate the targeting of a home energy efficiency scheme small area level in Northern Ireland, based on the level of need.
