Half of Britons to face fuel poverty by end of 2012
Press TV — A new study has revealed that around 30 million of the British people are to suffer from fuel poverty by the end of 2012 as the number of households struggling to pay their energy bills is to rise.
According to a report released by the SwitchGasandElectric.com yesterday on June 7, 37 percent of British consumers are considered as being in fuel poverty as they are currently spending over 10 percent of their income on gas and electricity bills on average.
The research by the energy price comparison site into the proportion of household income spent on fuel bills in 13,000 homes across the UK also found a further 13 percent of Britons will fall into fuel poverty if suppliers increase their prices later this summer.
