South Wales Fuel Poverty Forum

6th March 2015 @ 9:30 am - 12:30 pm

NEA Cymru invites you to attend their spring Fuel Poverty Forum in Cardiff. The forums (there’s one in North Wales too) have grown from strength to strength and are the recognised Welsh network in which to raise awareness of fuel poverty and to discuss solutions to the problem.

Why attend?
Spring’s focus will be on pre-payment and smart metering. By the end of 2013, there were more than 4 million pre-payment meters in Britain and over 3 million gas PPM accounts; an increase of 4% and 6% respectively compared to 2012. Pre-payment customers are still getting a raw deal and less than 1% of PPM customers who tried to switch supplier in 2013 were successful.

By attending the forum, you will have the opportunity to:
– Learn more about Citizens Advice’s ‘Fair Play for Prepay’ campaign;
– Consider whether smart meters will lead to improvements for PPM customers;
– Debate and influence the fuel poverty policy agenda in Wales;
– Network with different organisations;
– Highlight best practice and plant seeds for future collaboration.

With speakers from:
Citizens Advice Cymru; Smart Energy GB; Happy Energy Ltd; SWALEC; NEA
Lunch and refreshments will be provided.

The South Wales forum is being supported by Happy Energy Ltd.
