Evaluation of schemes to tackle energy poverty in Portugal

Evaluation of schemes to tackle energy poverty in Portugal

EDP NEW has used two of the SocialWatt decision-support tools to inform the development of its' energy poverty action plan which will guide its' energy poverty alleviation work for the duration of the project and beyond. More specifically:

  • SocialWatt Analyser - This tool supports the identification of energy poor households among utilities’ clients, based on real household energy consumption and cost data as well as other readily available data.
  • SocialWatt Plan – This tool supports the evaluation of several energy efficiency and renewable energy actions/schemes and recommends the optimal ones to implement (in terms of cost and risk), in order to alleviate energy poverty.

This report presents EDP NEW analysis of energy poverty and the assessment of schemes to alleviate it, performed using the tools. The full report is available to download here.
