3.1 Scope of the study
This report investigates the ongoing work on energy poverty in each of the Nordic countries in terms of defining and measuring the concept. The report also covers the implementation of policy measures to tackle energy poverty and preliminary learnings and discussions regarding the consequences of different policy initiatives. The report builds on the ongoing work on energy poverty in the EU but does not contain a broad summary or review of all relevant literature covering energy poverty.
3.2 Data
The report relies on qualitative as well as quantitative data. Furthermore, the report includes a thorough desk research on energy poverty in the Nordics and in the EU. Quantitative data have been obtained through desk research or through a special delivery from the Joint Research Centre (JRC) at the European Commission.
Qualitative data have been obtained through interviews with relevant stakeholders, and from a virtual workshop regarding ongoing work and future developments. A full list of organisations that have contributed to the report can be found in appendix 9.1.
The content and results of the report were developed by Ramboll. The study does not necessarily reflect the opinions of the contributing organisations and should not be interpreted as a formal contribution to the political discussion from the organisations listed in the report.
