This presentation explores how Scottish energy policy can be leveraged to better address fuel poverty. Drawing on policy document analysis and stakeholder interviews, the research identifies challenges to policy implementation and gaps in targeting, while establishing principles for policy of best practice going forward. It presents findings on how energy policy in Scotland can impact community wellbeing and vulnerability, with specific consideration for fuel poor households. The research demonstrates the importance of designing policies that centre community and equity outcomes alongside the transition to net zero.
