This remains broadly the same as 2012, where the number of fuel poor households was 2.36 million (10.8 per cent of all English households).<\/li>\n<li>The aggregate fuel poverty gap reduced by around four per cent in real terms, from \u00a3909 million in 2012 to \u00a3877 million in 2013. The average fuel poverty gap over this period also decreased from \u00a3385 to \u00a3374.<\/li>\n<li>In 2014 a target was set to ensure that as many fuel poor homes as is reasonably practicable achieve a minimum energy efficiency rating of Band C by 2030. In 2013 five per cent of fuel poor households are living in a property with an energy efficiency rating of band C or above, which is an improvement from two per cent in 2010. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<section class=\"attachment embedded\" id=\"attachment_1049770\">\n<div class=\"attachment-thumb\">\n      <a aria-describedby=\"attachment-1049770-accessibility-help\" class=\"thumbnail\" href=\"\/government\/uploads\/system\/uploads\/attachment_data\/file\/430336\/statistical_release.pdf\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.digital.cabinet-office.gov.uk\/government\/uploads\/system\/uploads\/attachment_data\/file\/430336\/thumbnail_statistical_release.pdf.png\"><\/a>\n  <\/div>\n<div class=\"attachment-details\">\n<h2 class=\"title\"><a aria-describedby=\"attachment-1049770-accessibility-help\" href=\"\/government\/uploads\/system\/uploads\/attachment_data\/file\/430336\/statistical_release.pdf\">Fuel poverty, England 2013: statistical release<\/a><\/h2>\n<p class=\"metadata\">\n        <span class=\"type\"><abbr title=\"Portable Document Format\">PDF<\/abbr><\/span>, <span class=\"file-size\">267KB<\/span>, <span class=\"page-length\">5 pages<\/span>\n    <\/p>\n<div class=\"accessibility-warning js-toggle-accessibility-warning\" id=\"attachment-1049770-accessibility-help\">\n<h2>This file may not be suitable for users of assistive technology.<br \/>\n          <span class=\"toggler\">Request a different format.<\/span><br \/>\n        <\/h2>\n<p class=\"help-block\">\n          If you use assistive technology and need a version of this document<br \/>\nin a more accessible format, please email<br \/>\n<a href=\"mailto:correspondence@decc.gsi.gov.uk?body=Details%20of%20document%20required%3A%0A%0A%20%20Title%3A%20Fuel%20poverty%2C%20England%202013%3A%20statistical%20release%0A%20%20Original%20format%3A%20pdf%0A%0APlease%20tell%20us%3A%0A%0A%20%201.%20What%20makes%20this%20format%20unsuitable%20for%20you%3F%0A%20%202.%20What%20format%20you%20would%20prefer%3F%0A%20%20%20%20%20%20&amp;subject=Request%20for%20%27Fuel%20poverty%2C%20England%202013%3A%20statistical%20release%27%20in%20an%20alternative%20format\">correspondence@decc.gsi.gov.uk<\/a>.<br \/>\nPlease tell us what format you need.
